SERVING OPTIONS

Wraps – Stuffed in pita bread or flatbreads with lettuce, tomato, drizzled with tahini or yogurt sauce. Bowls – Make bowls with couscous, rice, cauliflower rice or grains/beans (eg lentils – cook using this method). Warm salad – a substantial low-carb dinner with a side of roasted cauliflower (bake prior to meatballs).

NOTES

Meat – Lamb is a natural choice for Middle Eastern food but the spice mix is really good with beef too. Chicken will also work but you’ll need to increase the panko else the mixture is a little loose.
