I'm not a fan of cilantro, so I substituted parsley in the tzatziki sauce. It was still really good!

I'm not a big fan of Mediterranean food, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The meatballs were really flavorful and the pita bread was soft and fluffy. I'll definitely be making this again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the meatballs were dry and the pita bread was tough. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These meatballs were amazing! I used ground turkey instead of beef and they were still really juicy. The pita bread was also really good. I will definitely be making this again.

Just tried this recipe and it was a hit! The meatballs were moist and flavorful, and the pita bread was the perfect vessel for them. I especially loved the tzatziki sauce, which was creamy and tangy. Will definitely be making this again!
