Ingredients
-
8 oz. roast beef thinly sliced
1 beef boullion cube
1/2 cup water
1 Tablespoon oregano
2 large cloves garlic
3 teaspoon olive oil
4 Whole Wheat Kangaroo pita pockets
1/2 cup feta cheese
1 cup yogurt
1/4 cup finely diced cucumber
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black ground pepper
2 tomatoes cut into thin wedges
1/2 cup onion diced
4 cups of lettuce
Directions
Slice the leftover roast beef and put in non-stick saute pan with 1/2 cup of water, 1 boullion cube, 3 tsp. olive oil, 1 Tbl. oregano, and 1 of the large garlic cloves crushed. Simmer slowly until all liquid has been absorbed, about 30 min.
Meanwhile put 1 cup of yogurt in cheesecloth squeeze some of the moisture out the the yogurt. If you have time you can drain it over a cup for several hours and you will have what they call yogo cheese. You don't need it that thick for the tzatziki sauce. When you are done squeezing some of the moisture out of the yogurt, add 1/4 finely diced or grated cucumber, 1 large clove of garlic crushed, 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. ground pepper. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Fill each pita pocket half, with1 tablespoon feta cheese, 1 oz. seasoned roast beef, lettuce, onion, and tomatoes. Top it off with 1 Tbls. of the yogurt and cucumber tzatziki sauce.
If you aren't overly hungry 1/2 a pita would really be plenty, which would make your sandwich under 200 calories.
