Our keto spinach lamb roll-ups are AMAZING!
Is it just me or does lamb always transform an ordinary recipe into a little something special? If you've been hesitant to try out lamb at home because you just don't think you can make it taste the same as your favorite restaurant, then you'll be amazed at the simplicity of this dish! If you've got a few minutes to spare, then you can definitely make this meal all on your very own.
So just how easy is it? All you need are four core ingredients and a bit of salt and pepper–that's it! Simply hammer out the lamb pieces so they can cook up moist and flavorful, layer each piece of meat with fresh spinach and halloumi cheese, and pop it in the oven. In 30-40 minutes you'll have a deliciously cooked meal that tastes like you spent a ton of time in the kitchen. Don't worry, we won't tell if you don't!
While lamb is certainly the rockstar ingredient of this dish, I also want to discuss the significance of the halloumi cheese. This particular cheese is classified as a semi-hard brined cheese that is often a mix of sheep's and goat's milk. Because of its high melting point, it's the perfect cheese for grilling or roasting (such as with this recipe!). The rich, salty flavor is cooked away, and you are left with a rich, creamy texture that is second to none. If you aren't familiar with this particular cheese, you are in for a real treat!
Our keto spinach lamb roll-ups are a terrific option for any occasion. It's fast enough to cook up for a quick lunch but flavorful and hearty enough to serve as the main course for dinner. The choice is yours! One thing is for certain, you are sure to fall in love with the incredible flavor!
