Why didn't I think of this sooner? In a bout of laziness for meal preparation, I decided to take things I enjoyed when I ate meat and make them veggie friendly. I really wanted a gyro and thought I would just make a gyro without any meat. But, I was missing protein. Then it dawned on me. Why not cut up a veggie burger and use that for the meat substitute? DOY!
It was really yummy!
Vegetarian Gyro
- pita bread
- cucumbers (cubed)
- tomatoes (sliced)
- lettuce (I used romaine)
- Morningstar's Mushroom Lover's Burger (or any burger you like, but this one worked really well)
- Tzatziki (I found a cucumber dressing at Edward's Apple Orchard. I may have to make my own when this runs out though. If I have to make it, I'll post that recipe later.)
There's really not much prep other than heating the veggie burger and
cutting it up. Then throw all the stuff in a pita and voila!
Masterpiece made.
Tzatziki is SUPER easy to make. Just make sure you get as much liquid out of the cucumbers as possible before mixing with the yogurt! :)
ReplyDeleteOooo! The simpler the better for me, Val! It sounds good already. :) Thanks for the tip about the cucumbers.
