Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 egg, lightly beaten
6 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 lb ground lamb
1 lb ground beef
8 whole gyro-style pita bread (6 inches)
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
16 slices tomatoes
8 slices sweet onions, halved
1 cup plain yogurt
1 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the egg, garlic, oregano, kosher salt and pepper. Crumble lamb and beef over mixture; mix well.
  • Pat into an ungreased 9-x5x3-inch loaf pan.
  • Bake, uncovered, at 350°F for 60-70 minutes or until no pink remains and a meat thermometer reads 160°F.
  • Cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
  • For sauce, in a small bowl, combine the yogurt, cucumber, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
  • Brush pita breads with 1 tablespoon oil; heat on a lightly greased griddle for 1 minute on each side. Keep warm.
  • Cut meatloaf into very thin slices. In a large skillet, fry meatloaf in remaining oil in batches until crisp.
  • On each pita bread, layer tomato, onion and meatloaf slices; top with some tzatziki sauce.
  • Carefully fold pitas in half.
  • Serve with remaining sauce.

I made a few substitutions to the recipe and it still turned out great! I used ground turkey instead of beef and added some chopped spinach.
