Warm Greek Pita Sandwiches With Turkey and

Soft pita bread stuffed with seasoned turkey, crisp veggies, and a cool cucumber-yogurt sauce. This Mediterranean-inspired wrap is light, flavorful, and perfect for a healthy lunch or dinner.

Ingredients

  1. 1/2 cup sour cream
  2. 1/2 cup plain low-fat yogurt
  3. 1/2 cup cucumber, peeled, grated and squeezed as dry as possible 2 teaspoons red or rice wine vinegar
  4. 2 garlic cloves, minced
  5. 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper, to taste
  6. 4 large pitas
  7. 2 tablespoons olive oil
  8. 1 large onion, peeled, halved and cut into chunky wedges
  9. 3 cups leftover roast turkey, pulled into bite-sized pieces
  10. 1 teaspoon oregano
  11. 1 1/2 cups shredded lettuce (preferably romaine)
  12. 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved and lightly salted

Directions

  1. Adjust oven rack to middle position. Heat oven to 300 degrees.
  2. In a small bowl, mix sour cream, yogurt, cucumber, vinegar, 1 minced garlic clove, and salt and pepper to taste; set aside.
  3. Place pitas in oven; bake until warm and pliable, 7 minutes. Cut in half. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Carefully add onion; saute until spotty brown but still crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Add turkey, oregano and remaining minced garlic; continue to saute until heated through, another 2 minutes.
  4. Serve, letting guests fill their own pitas with lettuce first, followed by turkey, tomatoes and cucumber sauce.
