breadcrumbs, cucumber, feta cheese, Greek yogurt, lamb, lavender, lemon, mayonnaise, onion, spices,
This takes the humble meatball into the stratosphere! The feta cheese makes it extra moist, and give the recipe a Mediterranean flair. Serve these meatballs at your next party.
Why Try? If you’ve only had beef meatballs, try this lamb version. They are spicy, moist and delightful. And lavender is a hot on the food trend charts right now.
Foodie Byte: These bake up nicely in a 350°F oven in about 20 minutes and they freeze well, too.
