                       Phat Mommas Meal of the Week

 

         Chicken Gyro Wrap



I made a super-fantastic chicken gyro wrap today! yummm!

Chicken gyro:
1/2 large pita (cut edges and pull apart to make 2 large circles)
20-30 baby spinach leaves
1tbsp thinly sliced onion
1/2 medium tomato
Carrots (I used a potato peeler to get thin strips)
1/2 large grilled chicken breast (thinly sliced)
1-2 tbsp feta cheese
6 kalamata olives (halved)
3 tbsp skinny tzatziki






Skinny Tzatziki

  • 6 oz fat free greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup cucumber (peeled, seeded, grated and drained)
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • kosher salt and fresh pepper
Strain the yogurt to remove as much liquid as possible. Set aside.

Scoop seeds out of the cucumber with a small spoon. Place cucumber in a mini food processor or grate with a cheese grater. Drain the liquid from the cucumber in a strainer and sprinkle with a little salt (this helps release the liquid). You may want to use the back of a spoon to help squeeze out any excess liquid.
Combine strained cucumber, garlic, yogurt, salt, pepper and lemon juice, and refrigerate for a few hours before serving.
Store in refrigerator. Good for about a week.
