For meatballs with some Mediterranean vibes, lace them with our rich garlic and herb seasoning.

Toss meatballs to coat. Set aside. • In a large bowl, combine mixed salad leaves, carrot, cucumber, radish, a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste.

• Divide garden salad between bowls. • Top with Mediterranean beef meatballs and spoon over any remaining glaze. • Drizzle with creamy pesto dressing to serve. Enjoy!
