I love a simple delicious dinner like this one! I wrapped these balls in lavash bread spread with hummus and drizzled with tahini sauce. Thanks for this recipe. (Directions didn’t mention to add herbs to meat, but I figured it out).

These look incredible! I was wondering if I could use a plain coconut milk based yogurt since I can’t do dairy. May not have the same tang but yogurt isn’t an option for me. Any other suggestions?

So glad you all liked them! Yea, I used a scoop for form my balls so I didn’t have to handle them too much. But I do love the bonus of having the patties cook up faster. I mean imagine these as a burger!

I made this last night for my family (husband + 3 small boys). Double batch made enough for dinner and some lunches and was DELICIOUS. I ended up making patties as ball-shapes were just not happening. Those cooked faster, too, which was a plus. I served with couscous and bok choy cooked in the chicken pan. A winner!

I will definitely give this a try. Why do I read blogs when I’m hungry, it only leads to a few extra pounds… but after eating something like this, you won’t see me complaining haha =)

Glad you enjoyed the tabbouli! I went for the longest time without a food processor. Even now I hate lugging it out of the cabinet. I actually most often just grab the mini one. Easier to deal with.

I keep a container in my freezer to throw in vegetable scraps which I use for stock. This batch was heavy on the celery and fennel. I used the bones (and some meat) from a leftover roast chicken and added that to the insta-pot with the frozen vegetables then covered the whole thing with water. In thirty minutes I had a rich, flavorful broth. So happy with it.
And I hear you on the beans! I’ve been making bean soup all the time.

The tent muffins! I forgot about those. It makes me so ridiculously happy that the recipes that feed my family become family favorites for others too. Thanks so much for sharing.

Just made this recipe tonight for dinner. I used ground lamb in place of chicken and added roasted garlic to the mix- served along side your whole roasted carrot recipe and feta ztatziki it was a perfect wholesome, low carb meal AND my boyfriend cleaned his plate. Thanks for the inspiration!

It looks beautiful – and so green. I’ve tried turkey meatballs and find them a little dry but these looks very succulent in the photos. And yes to weeknight meals – so helpful

I love Kofta!! I have never had it made with chicken though. These look delicious!! Plus, anything + a feta yogurt sauce = delicious!

Weeknight dinners can be a drag to come up with – without just putting the same cycle of meals on re-peat. Meat balls are so quick to make, I should integrate them more often. I don’t know why I never think of it!

I love the idea of weeknight meals. I love cooking fresh, flavorful meals, but what I always think is going to take 45 min ends up taking closer to 2 hrs, and sometimes the day gets away from me. The kids are crazy about your Tent Muffins and Coconut oatmeal, and your fudge sauce is a family favorite.

I assume you add the 1/2 cup chopped herbs to the raw meat mixture before searing. Correct?

Okay…I made it. Just like the recipe except with turkey. Amazing. I may make it again this weekend! And next Thursday…and the following Monday. ..

I don’t see the kofta recipe. Where is it please?

So funny, I love my instant pot and I’m always so embarrassed when I tell people about it because I consider myself a purist in the kitchen and it sounds like something you might buy off an infomercial. But, it actually gets me to start with real, whole-food ingredients instead of reaching for canned or processed options. That’s what I love about it!
