Keto Kebab Salad with Tahini Sauce –

I made this dish for my husband for a quick lunch and he loved it. He taught me how to make these little kefta as they are called where he is from in North Africa. In the Middle East, they often call this dish as kofta and many places have their own variations. Tahini is a sesame seeds paste and they add a nutty flavor to any savory dish.
