Ingredients

For the Wraps

• 1 lb pre-made gyro meat (such as lamb or chicken)
• 1 cup cucumber, diced
• 1 cup tomatoes, diced
• 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled

For the Tzatziki Sauce

• 1 cup Greek yogurt
• 1/2 cucumber, grated and excess moisture squeezed out
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh dill or mint (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Tzatziki Sauce

1. In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
2. Mix well and taste, adding fresh dill or mint if desired for extra flavor.

🥄 Feel free to make the tzatziki sauce a few hours in advance. It allows the flavors to meld beautifully, making it even more delicious!

Cook the Gyro Meat

3. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pre-made gyro meat and cook according to the package instructions until heated through and slightly crispy on the edges.

🔥 If you’re feeling adventurous, you can add a pinch of paprika or cayenne for an extra kick!

Assemble the Wraps

4. Warm the pita or flatbreads lightly in the skillet for about 30 seconds on each side, or you can microwave them for a few seconds.
5. Layer the cooked gyro meat in the center of each wrap, then pile on the diced cucumber, tomatoes, sliced red onion, and crumbled feta cheese.
6. Drizzle with the tzatziki sauce, then sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley.

🌿 For a zesty twist, add a few slices of pickled jalapeños for some heat!

Wrap It Up

7. Fold the sides of the pita over the filling, then roll tightly from the bottom up to secure everything inside.
8. Cut in half, if desired, and serve immediately.

Variations

• Vegetarian: Replace the gyro meat with grilled veggies such as zucchini, bell peppers, and mushrooms, or use falafel for a tasty twist. 🌱
• Spicy: Add sriracha to the tzatziki sauce for a spicy kick or incorporate spicy feta cheese into your filling.
• Extra Crunchy: Add shredded lettuce or shredded carrots for extra texture and crunch.
• High Protein: Increase the protein by adding chickpeas or additional Greek yogurt to the filling.
