Instructions
- Cook the rice according to package instructions adding the lemon zest and dill in before it comes to a boil.
- Preheat oven to 450° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Spray it with cooking oil.
- Add all of the meatball ingredients to a mixing bowl and use your hands to combine the ingredients being careful not to over mix. Coat your hands with a bit of oil and scoop out approximately a tablespoon size amount of the meat and roll it into a ball.
- Place the meatballs on the prepared baking sheet and spray or brush the tops with olive oil. Place the baking sheet on the center rack of the oven and bake for approximately 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
- While the meatballs bake, combine all of the ingredients for the Greek salad in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the ingredients for the tzatziki dressing. Taste for seasoning and set aside.
- To assemble the bowl, add a 1/2 cup of the rice to a bowl. Top with 4-5 meatballs and some of the Greek salad. Spoon the tzatziki dressing over the top and garnish with extra dill.
