Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1 lb ground beef
- ½ (16 oz) jar grape leaves
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- ½ teaspoon dried dill
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- ⅛ cup lemon juice
Instructions
- In a shallow pot over medium heat, add the olive oil and raw ground beef. Cooking, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until the beef is no longer pink - about 10 minutes.
- While the beef cooks, use a knife and cutting board to chop the grape leaves into bite-sized pieces.
- Drain off any extra liquid/fat in the pan then add the chopped grape leaves, minced garlic, dried parsley, dried dill, dried oregano, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes. Stir to combine.
- Continue to cook, stirring intermittently, for 10 minutes until the garlic has softened and the grape leaves are heated through. Add the lemon juice and serve immediately or keep warm until serving.

Notes
- I like to serve Lebanese Grape Leaves Bowl over cauliflower rice or jasmine rice with Roasted Sheet Pan Broccoli or a Mediterranean Chopped Salad and Tzatziki Sauce or Yogurt Dill Sauce.
- These days you can find jarred grape leaves in a variety of traditional grocery stores. Look for them in the aisle with the ethnic foods, near the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern items such as tahini.
