We love Greek food. I don’t make it nearly as often as I’d like because it usually takes a little more effort than time allots for a regular dinner. Not to mention I usually don’t have a couple of the ingredients in the pantry. This recipe however, is much faster than a normal meal and great to make when you’re herding children on those busy summer evenings. I like that it’s light and healthy yet really filling. One serving is half of a gyro, the only one who can eat more than that around here is my husband. I like to think that’s attributed to my awesome cooking vs just a man sized appetite.

Feta cheese is a little more pricey than I like to spend, but it works nicely with this recipe because all of the other ingredients are pretty basic. But always thrifty, I try to grab some on sale or with a coupon.

With this dinner I paired the gyro with some raw sugar snap peas, and a cookie. No utensils required, which would make it great for picnics too!
