It's All Greek To Me

OPA!

I should probably start this post by saying I am not Greek (though likely my blonde hair and pale skin have already given me away) but I love all things Greek! Olives and olive oil, fresh bread, cheese (feta!), yogurt, eggplant… the list goes on and on.

After receiving my big package of fun foodie treats yesterday, I knew I had to incorporate one of Joseph’s pitas into my lunch today since I’ve heard fantastic things about them but have never actually tried the little buggers.

I’ve also been meaning to make tzatziki sauce with my Greek yogurt for ages and since the remainders of a big tub of the yogurt would likely go bad in the fridge when we’re outta town this weekend, I saw a wonderful opportunity to give it a go!

After a quick Google of typical tzatziki sauce ingredients, I rounded up the essentials (salt and pepper not pictured… sliced cucumber already in the container) and started creating my oh-so-Greek lunch.

I combined two big spoonfuls of Greek yogurt, approximately a teaspoon or two of garlic and lemon juice with finely diced cucumber slices and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.

Last night when I was making the roasted veggie pizza for dinner, I chopped up extra veggies and tossed them with feta cheese to stuff inside my pita pocket.

Lots and lots of feta!

Before stuffing my pita, I spread the homemade tzatziki sauce inside.

I then stuffed as many of the chopped veggies as I could inside the warmed pita bread.

This was one packed pita. I loved all the veggies and the creamy goodness of the tzatziki sauce really made the pita pop!
