Gyro Meat Loaf with Tzatziki Sauce

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Bake: 55 min. + standing YIELD: 8 servings.
A spin on a classic meat loaf, I love this because I can sneak spinach in on my meat-and-potatoes family. Serve it with Greek-style potatoes or a Greek salad. I also get to make a whole other meal the next night with the leftovers—gyros. —Mandy Rivers, Lexington, South Carolina

Ingredients

  • 1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
  • 1 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped

  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 pounds ground lamb or beef
  • 1 cup refrigerated tzatziki sauce

Directions

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Crumble lamb over mixture and mix well. Shape into a loaf and place in a greased 11x7-in. baking dish.
  • 2. Bake, uncovered, 55-60 minutes or until no pink remains and a thermometer reads 160°. Let stand 15 minutes before slicing. Serve with tzatziki sauce.
