Meatballs are the perfect homey recipe and are so easy to make. I especially love these Greek lamb meatballs because the lemon’s citrus lightens the flavour and is a great vitamin C boost for immune and skin health. For a pasta alternative, I served mine over baked spaghetti squash with a bit of lemon juice and olive oil.

These Lemony Greek Lamb Meatballs would also go great with a side of sautéed or baked vegetables, especially greens, tomatoes and kalamata olives.
