Ingredients

• 500 g lean ground turkey
• 1 large onion
• 2 garlic cloves
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp ground coriander
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 0.5 tsp ground black pepper
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 4 whole wheat pita breads
• 200 g light Greek yogurt
• 1 small cucumber
• 1 large tomato
• 4 lettuce leaves
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 2 tbsp fresh dill

Directions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Finely chop the onion and garlic.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine lean ground turkey, chopped onion, chopped garlic, cumin, coriander, oregano, black pepper, and salt. Mix thoroughly until well combined.

Step 4

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey mixture to the skillet and cook for approximately 8-10 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula until it is browned and cooked through.

Step 5

While the turkey is cooking, prepare the Tzatziki sauce: Grate the cucumber and squeeze out excess moisture. In a bowl, mix the grated cucumber with light Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and chopped fresh dill.

Step 6

Warm the whole wheat pitas in the oven for about 5 minutes.

Step 7

Slice the tomato and wash the lettuce leaves.

Step 8

To assemble the wraps: Lay a warmed pita on a plate and spread a tablespoon of Tzatziki sauce over it. Place a lettuce leaf on the pita, add a generous scoop of the turkey mixture, and top with sliced tomato.

Step 9

Fold the pita over the filling to form a wrap and serve immediately with additional Tzatziki sauce on the side if desired.
