Delightful and easy meal bringing Mediterranean flavors, combining tender meatballs with rice, fresh vegetables, and creamy tzatziki sauce.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef or lamb
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups cooked rice or quinoa
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • Tzatziki sauce for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the meatball mixture: In a large bowl, combine ground beef or lamb, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, egg, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  2. Form the meatballs: Shape the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.
  3. Cook the meatballs: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little olive oil. Carefully place the meatballs into the skillet, cooking until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 10-15 minutes.
  4. Assemble the bowls: In serving bowls, layer the cooked rice or quinoa. Top with the cooked meatballs, diced tomatoes, cucumber, and crumbled feta cheese.
  5. Finish with tzatziki: Drizzle with tzatziki sauce before serving for a refreshing touch.

Notes

Avoid overmixing the meatball ingredients. Use fresh herbs for better flavor.
