Gyros!

A gyro is a greek sandwich filled with lamb or beef. I am personally not a big fan of lamb, but if you are, feel free to sub in ground lamb for the beef.

4 pita breads

1/2 c. plain yogurt

1 Tbsp. chopped fresh or 1 t. dried mint leaves

1 t. sugar

1 small cucumber, seeded and chopped (3/4 c.)

1 lb. ground beef or lamb

1 Tbsp. water

2 Tbsp. lemon juice

1/2 t. salt

1/2 t. cumin

1/2 t. dried oregano

1/4 t. pepper

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 small onion, chopped (1/4 c.)

2 Tbsp. oil

2 c. shredded lettuce

1 med. tomato chopped (3/4 c.)

Create a pocket in your pitas by cutting halfway around the edge with a knife and gently separating the layers. Mix yogurt, mint and sugar in small bowl. Stir in cucumber.

Mix beef water, lemon juice, salt, cumin, oregano, pepper, garlic and onion. Shape mixture into 4 thin patties.

Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Cook patties until no longer pink in center. Place cooked patties into pita pockets and top with lettuce, tomato, and yogurt mixture.

**My note: If you don't want to shred your lettuce, just place a leaf or two in each pocket. I also just sliced my tomatoes instead of dicing them.
