Mediterranean Beef Meatballs

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. lean grass fed ground beef
  • 1/4 cup oat flour ground oatmeal
  • 2 Tbsps chopped fresh dill
  • 2 Tbsps chopped fresh parsley leaves
  • 2 Tbsps chopped fresh mint leaves
  • 1/4 cup pitted Kalamata olives chopped
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp finely ground black pepper or to taste
  • 1/2 small onion grated
  • 2-3 fresh garlic cloves minced
  • 1 Tbsp avocado or olive oil

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl combine all ingredients except for the oil, and stir everything until well combined. I usually do this with my hands because that's how my grandma taught me to do it :)
  • Take a spoonful of your mixture and using your palms dipped in a bit of oil, shape into a ball. Repeat with remaining mixture. I love to use my small cookie scoop for this part because I can get them all pretty even.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add in about 1 Tablespoon of oil, swirl the pan to coat, then gently add in each meatball leaving some space in between each.
  • Cook for about 8-10 minutes, turning on all sides until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve with a fresh chopped Greek inspired cucumber and tomato salad with feta and enjoy!
