Additional Notes

In a medium bowl whisk the eggs and the oil. In the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade, process the spinach until pureed. Add 10 tablespoons of the puree into the egg mixture. Whisk to incorporate. Sprinkle in the matzo ball mix. Stir in with a fork, mixing as little as possible. Don't overwork it. Chill in refrigerator for 20 minutes. Meanwhile bring a pot of water or chicken stock to a boil.
Wet your hands in a bowl of cold water. Using your hand, and manipulating as little as possible, scoop out a ping pong ball size of the mixture. Form it into a ball with your fingertips, using no real pressure. Turn the water/stock down to a simmer. Drop in the balls. Cover the pot and simmer for 20 minutes.
