Loved it! I didn't make the tzatziki. The meatballs and orzo were wonderful together. I made exactly as directed, except that I added some diced kalamata olives to the orzo - delicious. My husband grew up in Greece and loved this recipe. I served it all with sliced fresh cucumber.

I'm giving this 5 stars even though I didn't make the tzatziki. The meatballs and orzo side dish were perfect together and I thought the sauce would be too much. Maybe the sauce would be good if you were serving the meatballs as appetizers. Definitely going to make these again.

One of the best recipes I have tried as of late. The meatballs are moist and flavorful, the dip is wonderful and the orzo was great. My husband and I both loved it. Will be a staple in the recipe box. Highly recommend.

I think this is a tasty Greek meal. I added Allspice to the meatballs which gave it a little Lebanese flare. Also, I added some lemon juice to the orzo which gave it a kick. Wonderful, easy recipe. Thanks Rachael!

The meatballs are simply amazing! The flavors come together so well and totally brighten up a normal weekday meal. My husband kept repeating "Wow!" They were so EASY to make too! I highly recommend using lamb instead of beef to keep to the right flavor profile. The orzo pasta with feta and walnuts was great too! Don't skip the step of toasting the walnuts.The meatballs definitely reheat well and the orzo is great cold for lunch the next day. Oh and don't forget the tzatziki-it complimented the meatballs so well. Just make sure the cucumber is well-drained to avoid watery tzatziki! You could definitely make mini versions of these meatballs and set them out with toothpicks and the tzatziki at your next party!

I made the Greek Meatballs using lamb and they were so good; as was the Tzatziki with the toasted pita wedges. The Orzo with feta cheese and walnuts is to die for.
Thanks Rachael for a great recipe.
