Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 tortilla, lettuce leaves, naan, pita or whatever you want to wrap this goodness in
  • 15 g red onion, diced
  • Pick your protein: turkey/chicken lunch meat OR leftover grilled chicken, rotisserie chicken etc.
  • ~1/3 cup of tzatziki sauce (recipe below)
  • sprinkle of oregano
  • Tzatziki Sauce Recipe
  • 1 cup whole milk Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup (~56 g) Athenos reduced fat feta cheese
  • 100 g cucumbers, peeled, grated and excess liquid squeezed out
  • 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Salt & Pepper to taste.

Instructions

Combine yogurt, feta cheese, vinegar, lemon juice and salt and pepper. Peel, grate the cucumber. Squeeze the juice from the cucumber. The key here is to squeeze as much juice as you can out of the cucumber. You don't want wet soupy sauce. Thick and chunky is the way to go. I usually put the grated cucumber in a clean dish cloth and wrap it up and twist it. You can also put it in a fine mesh strainer and press on it to get the liquid out. Once strained stir it in to the rest of the sauce.

Grab a tortilla, a few leaves of lettuce, and egg wrap, whatever you want to hold the filling. Spread 1/2 serving of tzatziki sauce over the tortilla, then top with lunch meat (turkey or chicken), top with the other 1/2 serving of tzatziki sauce. Sprinkle diced red onion, and oregano to garnish and give some extra flavor.
