There’s just something about slathering tzatziki and feta on top of a lamb burger. So delicious with a big punch of flavour! Lamb is a great source of vitamin B12, protein, selenium, zinc and other vitamins and minerals. It is a common meat choice for a Mediterranean diet, which is particularly noted to support heart health.
