GYRO-STYLE VEGGIE BURGER

Gyro-style Veggie Burger image

This is my version of the gyro sauce, tzatziki. It's a sauce my mother-in-law taught me to make by taste and texture without any measurements. I've made faux gyros for years using pitas, thinly sliced roast beef, shredded lettuce and this sauce. Since we went vegetarian, I've REALLY been missing my gyros! This is as close to that...

I had this written on a scrap of paper and really don't remember where it came from. It's a great way to "dress" up the plain boca burgers.
