Greek Meatball Bowls

Directions

1. 1
   In a mixing bowl add ground beef, chopped scallion and bell pepper, 1 tbsp olive oil, thyme, mint, basil, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, black pepper and squeeze the 3 cloves of garlic using a garlic press.
2. 2
   Then using a fork or your hands, mix everything together until combined.
3. 3
   Form meatballs or smaller patties and cook in a non-stick pan at medium-high with 1 tbsp olive oil until golden brown on each side.
4. 4
   For the yogurt garlic sauce, mix the yogurt with 1 minced garlic clove and a pinch of salt.
5. 5
   When the meatballs are ready, either let them cool off and transfer to an airtight food container or serve immediately with a salad made of olives, chopped tomatoes & cucumbers, 1 Tbsp olive oil, feta cheese, and scallions.
6. 6
   Add some lettuce on the side and the yogurt garlic sauce.
7. 7
   If you want to meal prep these bowls, it's best to use containers with 2-3 compartments and store the meatballs, salad, and sauce separately. Also, use cherry tomatoes instead of chopped tomatoes and don't add the dressing.
