Mini Chicken-Veggie Meatball burger

I am working for my son’s picky eating especially green vegetable. He ate most of the vegetable but one of the veggie he refuse to eat is spinach.
So I decided to include spinach in the meatball. This meat ball contains lot of vegetable and he enjoyed this meatball burger especially teddy bear one.
I am sure he does not know I added spinach in his dish.
