  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon parsley
  • 1–2 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper and/or grease well
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together ingredients for the meatballs until fully combined
  3. Form into mini meatballs (I did about 2 tablespoons per meatball) and add to baking sheet
  4. Bake in oven for 25 minutes or until fully cooked (flipping halfway through)
  5. While meatballs bake, mix together tzatziki sauce ingredients in a medium bowl and mix well
  6. Serve meatballs with desired add-on’s and tzatziki sauce and enjoy!
