Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground beef, 1/4 cup chopped mint, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 grated onion, and 1/2 cup crumbled feta. Mix gently until just combined.
Step 2
Shape the mixture into 12 equal meatballs, about 1.5 inches in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, toss 1 cubed eggplant and 1 chopped bell pepper with 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread the vegetables around the meatballs on the baking sheet.
Step 4
Drizzle the meatballs with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil. Roast for 20-25 minutes, until the meatballs are browned and cooked through (internal temperature 160°F) and the vegetables are tender and caramelized.
Step 5
Serve the meatballs and vegetables hot, garnished with extra mint leaves if desired.
