These bold, herb-packed meatballs bring the flavors of a Greek taverna straight to your kitchen, and they come together with surprisingly little fuss. A blend of ground lamb and beef keeps them rich and juicy, while crumbled feta melts into every bite for that signature salty, tangy punch. Fresh mint, dried oregano, and a touch of cumin round out the seasoning in a way that feels both rustic and deeply satisfying. The key swap here is gluten free breadcrumbs, which bind the mixture just as effectively as traditional ones — no compromise in texture, no second-guessing the ingredient list. Everything bakes at high heat until beautifully browned, so you get that roasted exterior without standing over a stovetop. The cool, creamy yogurt sauce — made with grated cucumber, fresh dill, and a squeeze of lemon — is the perfect counterpoint and comes together while the meatballs are in the oven. This recipe makes about 20 to 22 meatballs and serves 6, so it's just as at home on a weeknight dinner table as it is at a casual gathering.
