Greek gyro
This recipe is also great for meal prepping into gyro “bowls” by putting ingredients over cooked basmati rice! Yum!
Ingredients:
Falafel (Trader Joes has the best)
Pita Bread
Lettuce
Tomato
Cucumber
Feta or dairy free Feta
Purple Onion
Hummus or Tzatziki
Homemade Tzatziki:
1/2 cup plain greek yogurt or cashew milk yogurt
1 cup sour cream or dairy free sour cream
1/2 cucumber, grated (seeds removed)
2-3 cloves garlic, grated
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp dill, chopped (can use dried)
1 tsp onion powder
Salt & pepper to taste
Directions:
For the home made tzatziki sauce - start by cutting the cucumber in half and scraping out the seeds. Grate and then squeeze out the water from the cucumber using a kitchen towel or paper towels. Mince garlic cloves. Juice half a lemon. Combine all ingredients together and let sit in the fridge. The longer it sits in the fridge, the more flavorful it will get!
Cook your falafel in the air fryer or oven according to package directions. Cut your tomato, cucumber, and purple onion into slices. Shred your lettuce. Take your pita and either microwave for ten seconds or place into a skillet to get warm. If you don’t warm your peta bread before assembling your “taco” it may break in half! Once your falafel is cooked and your pita bread is warm, you can start assembling your gyro! Put a layer of tzatziki or hummus on your pita and layer in the other ingredients to your liking!
To Drink:
Make a Cucumber Mint Refresher to go with this light but nutritious recipe!
In a shaker bottle add one scoop of ice, a couple cucumber slices, mint leaves, & two ounces of simple syrup. Shake vigorously! We are trying to break up the mint leaves and cucumber! Once shaken, pour into a glass and top with club soda!
