Recipe for Greek meatballs

Here you get the recipe for the most delicious Keftedes greek meatballs. We like to grill them for some more intense flavor. They also pack a lot of flavor from and a lovely texture from the incorporated feta cheese, parsley and sun dried tomatoes. Not only do these elements add a lot of taste but also help keep the Keftedes nice and juicy. Speaking of juicy, when shopping for beef we recommend using high fat beef as that contains more flavor and adds to the juiciness.

If you need inspiration for some good side dishes, we can recommend trying our tomato salad with roasted pine nuts and parmesan or our delicious melon salad with feta and blueberries. These go great with the flavorful and juicy grilled Greek meatballs.
