LAMB OR BEEF KEBAB PITAS WITH TZATZIKI
Because of the use of ground meat, this is what we call a kebab here. Delicious! They can be oven-roasted, but I highly recommend you do these on the bbq.

SPICY BEEF PITAS
This is from Every Day w/ Rachael Ray. It's inexpensive, easy and tastes great. I'm not a fan of bell peppers, so I used a bit of petite diced tomatoes for color and flavor.
