Ingredients

  • Hummus or tzatziki
  • Romaine lettuce
  • Tomato
  • Red onion
  • Jalapeños
  • Cucumbers
  • Kalamata olives
  • Naan bread
  • Chickpeas
  • Cumin
  • Paprika
  • Garlic powder
  • Oregano
  • S&P
  • Feta cheese

✖️Start by rinsing canned chickpeas, lay out on tea towel to dry – this will help get those chickpeas crispy! You can gently roll a paper towel or dish cloth over them. Be careful not to squish.

✖️Chop your veggies. I used traditional Greek vegetables – tomato, cucumber, olives, onions., Nice thing about this dish, is that you can set all your toppings up like a taco bar so people can make their own

✖️On medium heat, add 1 tbsp of oil along with chickpeas. Add salt and pepper. Cook for approx 8 mins, stirring frequently so they don’t burn.

✖️Add into your pan –

  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • Extra salt & pepper

✖️Cook for a few more mins, remove from pan into a bowl lined with paper towel

✖️In the same pan, add a touch more olive oil, toast Naan bread, couple mins on each side

Assemble gyro –

✖️on warm naan, spread a good healthy dollop of tzatziki

✖️add lettuce, tomato, cucumber, olives, feta, jalaps, sprinkle of oregano

 

Enjoy!
