These Baked Greek Meatballs with Feta are a favorite recipe I’ve made many times through the years! And if you look around on my blog, it’s obvious I’m a huge fan of Greek Food. I don’t know if this type of meatball is authentically Greek, but it’s definitely loaded with Greek flavors.
And these meatballs s are an easy dish that won’t make you think about being on a diet. You can serve the meatballs as a main dish, but they’ll disappear quickly on a party buffet table as well.
I do want to alert you that because the meatballs don’t have bread crumbs or oatmeal, some liquid will ooze out of the meat while they cook. Just expect that to happen, and you can even spoon the liquid off a time or two if you need to. And if you’re patient and just keep cooking the meatballs even though the pan may look like a mess, the finished Greek Meatballs are so, so delicious!
