Number Of Ingredients 19

1 cucumber (peeled and seeded)
16 ounces plain Greek yogurt
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
½ teaspoon lemon juice
¼ teaspoon dried dill weed
1 Tablespoon olive oil

4 teaspoons minced garlic

6 pita breads

Steps:

  • Make the tzatziki and relish at least 1 hour ahead or up to 2 days in advance so the flavors meld together.
  • For the tzatziki, shred the cucumbers and blot with a paper towel or clean kitchen towel to remove as much moisture as possible. Mix together the shredded cucumbers, strained yogurt, garlic, vinegar and lemon juice. Add dill and salt and pepper to taste. Cover and keep in the fridge until serving.
  • For the relish, gently mix olive oil, vinegar, tomatoes, cucumbers and onions in a medium bowl and add salt and pepper as desired. Cover and let sit in the fridge until serving.
  • For the meat, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, sauté ground turkey and onions until turkey is no longer pink, drain grease. Season with salt and pepper, as desired. Decrease temperature to low. Add oregano, garlic, tomato paste, and red wine vinegar to skillet and stir until meat is coated with seasonings.
  • To serve, add meat, relish, and tzatziki to a pita and enjoy.
