Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb lean ground beef
1 small red onion, chopped
1 tsp greek seasoning
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp salt, divided
1 cucumber, peeled, seeded, and grated
8 oz container sour cream or plain greek yogurt
1 clove garlic, minced
1 Tbsp fresh dill, chopped
6 pita pockets
1 tomato, chopped
4 oz crumbled feta cheese
lettuce, shredded

Steps:

1. Cook ground beef, onion, greek seasoning, pepper, and 1/4 tsp. salt in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring often, 7 to 9 minutes or until beef crumbles and is no longer pink; drain well on paper towels.
2. Stir together cucumber, sour cream, dill, garlic and remaining 1/4 tsp. salt. (I often make this ahead of time and keep it in the refrigerator, as it allows for the flavors to infuse together.)
3. Once everything is done, it is time to put it together. Spoon beef mixture, tomatoes, lettuce, and feta into the pita pocket, then top with cucumber sauce. Eat and Enjoy! You will be back for more.
