Greek -Style Lamb Pita Sandwiches
We rated this dinner excellent. But I need to give you a little more information. Tonight was the third time I made the pita sandwiches. The first time I made the recipe "as is" with ground lamb and fresh dill. It was excellent. I made the pita sandwiches a second time last week. The second time I made the lamb burgers with ground chicken. The ground chicken was about half the price of the ground lamb and didn't really change the taste of the burgers. Tonight I made the burgers with ground turkey. The ground turkey was less than $5 per pound. Tonight I also made the burgers with fresh mint instead of the dill. They were again excellent. The lamb burgers were excellent and the turkey burgers were just as good. Another hint, instead of chopping the cucumber for the sauce, consider grating it. We liked the texture better. I served the sandwiches with a fresh greek salad. A little cucumber, red pepper, green pepper, tomatoes, onion, celery, olives and feta cheese. A little lemon juice and oil make a quick and tasty dressing. Not the quickest week night meal, but it is work the work.
