As we were cooking these green beans again last night (with fresh beans from the farmers’ market Saturday), we realized we haven’t shared them on the blog–and they’re our favorite!

mini greek-style meatloaves

May 24, 2013 //

Made these mini greek-style meatloaves.[original recipe here]. They were yummy (and not really anything like savannah remembers meatloaf tasting). We love anything with tzatziki-like sauce. But really… make them (soon and often.
