How to Make Mini Greek Style Meat Loaves

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground lamb, 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese, 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley.
  3. Stir in 1 tablespoon fresh mint, 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon allspice, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 large egg, and 1/4 cup breadcrumbs.
  4. Coat 8 muffin cups with cooking spray. Press the meat mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups.
  5. Bake for 7 minutes at 450°F (232°C).
  6. Turn the broiler to high. Broil for 3 minutes, or until the loaves are browned on top.
  7. While the meatloaf is baking, prepare the feta-yogurt sauce: In a mini food processor, combine 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon fresh mint, and 1 teaspoon fresh thyme.
  8. Pulse 10 times until well combined.
  9. Prepare the arugula & cucumber salad: In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  10. Add 4 cups arugula and 1/2 cup thinly sliced cucumber. Toss gently to combine.
  11. Serve the mini meat loaves immediately, topped with the feta-yogurt sauce and accompanied by the arugula & cucumber salad.
