Greek-Style Meatball Bites

Ingredients:

Spinach - one 9 oz. box (frozen and chopped )

Lamb meat - 3/4 lbs (ground)

Italian seasoning - 2 tsp.

Onion powder - 1 tsp.

Feta cheese - 1/2 cup (crumbled)

Pizza crust - 1 can (refrigerated classic crust)

Tzaziki sauce - 1/3 cup

Salt and Pepper - as needed

All-Purpose flour - for the surface

Method of Preparation:

Heat the oven to 400°F. Spray 36 mini muffin cups with a non stick cooking spray. Microwave the frozen spinach for about 3 to 4 minutes until thawed. Drain well and squeeze the spinach dry with paper towels.
In a large bowl, combine the lamb, Italian seasoning, onion powder and 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt and a 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add the spinach and the feta, mixing with a spoon or with your hands until well-combined.
Sprinkle the surface with flour and unroll the dough onto it. Cut the dough in half (crosswise), press or roll each half to a 10x8-inch rectangle. Using a two-inch round cutter, cut 18 rounds from each dough rectangle. Press 1 dough round in the bottom and up the sides of each muffin cup. Scoop or spoon 1 tablespoon lamb mixture into each cup and press in lightly.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the lamb is no longer pink in the center. Test by placing a meat thermometer to read 160°F. Let it cool for 5 minutes then top each cup with 1/2 teaspoonful tzatziki sauce. Serve warm.
