Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground lamb
• 1 pound Ground beef
• 1 medium Onion, finely minced
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground rosemary
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground thyme
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 4 pieces Low sodium pita bread or flatbread
• 1 cup Cucumber, sliced
• 1 medium Tomato, sliced
• 0.5 medium Red onion, thinly sliced
• 0.5 cup Low sodium feta cheese, crumbled
• 2 tablespoons Fresh dill, chopped
• 0.5 cup Low sodium tzatziki sauce

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground lamb, ground beef, minced onion, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, dried oregano, ground black pepper, rosemary, and thyme. Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the spices throughout the meat.

Step 3

Grease a loaf pan with olive oil. Pack the meat mixture into the pan, pressing firmly to eliminate air pockets.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

Step 5

Remove from the oven and let the meat rest for 10 minutes before slicing thinly.

Step 6

To assemble the gyro wraps, lay a piece of pita or flatbread on a clean surface. Spread about 1 to 2 tablespoons of low sodium tzatziki sauce down the center.

Step 7

Layer slices of gyro meat on top of the tzatziki sauce.

Step 8

Add a handful of sliced cucumber, tomato, red onion, and crumbled low sodium feta cheese over the meat.

Step 9

Sprinkle with chopped fresh dill.

Step 10

Fold the wrap over the filling, secure with foil or parchment paper if desired, and serve immediately.
