Greek Meatloaf

Tonight's homestead meal is Greek meatloaf. When we have a lamb processed it seems we get back a lot of ground. Not sure what to do with it all, I tried recipes like moussaka, which I found extremely time consuming and not worth it (IMOHO). So I have created a few recipes that use just the ground lamb. I also use it with beef and deer to extend in recipes like chili and spaghetti.
                                            GREEK MEATLOAF
                                              2 lbs ground lamb
                                              1/2 cup chopped onion
                                              4-5 cloves minced garlic
                                              1 cup fresh bread crumbs
                                              1 egg
                                              1-2 tsp of Greek, lamb or Italian seasoning
                                              salt & pepper
Mix ingredients well and form into loaf. Bake at 350* 45 minutes. Serve with fresh cucumber sauce.

                                             CUCUMBER SAUCE
                                             1/2 c. sour cream
                                             1/4 cup mayonnaise
                                             1/3- 1/2 c. finely diced cucumber
                                             2 cloves garlic, minced
                                             1/2 tsp garlic salt
                                             1/2 tsp. dill weed
