This past weekend as we celebrated the big game with friends and family I included these spinach chicken feta meatballs with Classico tomatoes in my food spread.
to make them even tastier, I also served a few in mini pitas with homemade tzatziki sauce. Oh.my.yum! Green goodness at its best.
Paired with a classic Greek salad and homeade greek dressing, the party was a success. And no one missed the fatty dips and deep fried appetizers.
