2 pounds fresh spinach
1 cup chopped scallions
2 tsp. olive oil
2 cups cooked brown rice
2 T. chopped fresh dill
1 1/2 T. fresh lemon juice (or juice of one large lemon should do it)
1 cup bread crumbs (you can make your own if needed)
Salt and pepper to taste
sesame seeds to coat, about one cup

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large pot, steam the spinach a few minutes until just wilted (only a few minutes). Drain and roughly chop the spinach. In a small saucepan, add the oil and sauté the scallions for about 5 minutes, until just starting to brown. In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients except sesame seeds. Use spray oil and coat a large baking sheet. But the sesame seeds in a bowl. Use your hands to make small snowball-sized balls with the mixture, then roll the spinach balls in the sesame seeds to coat. Arrange on the baking sheet without touching. This will make approx. 10 spinach balls. Bake for about 30 minutes.
