Grilled Veggie Gyros


After a weekend out of town I knew we needed some veggies in our life!  I had been eyeing this recipe for a while and it was a great opportunity to try it out! Oh my yum!!! These Gyros were amazing! This recipe is slightly adapted from Oh My Veggies.

1/4 cup olive oil
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp dried oregano
2 cloves garlic (minced)
Salt and pepper to taste
3 portabella mushrooms
1 red pepper
1 large zucchini
1 red onion
4 pitas or flatbread
1 cup shredded lettuce
1 tomato (diced)
Tzatziki Sauce 

Slice the veggies into strips.  In a small bowl whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, cumin, oregano, garlic, salt and pepper. Pour over veggies and lightly toss.  Let the veggies marinate for 15 to 20 minutes. Heat the grill over medium heat and place tin foil down.  Set the veggies in a single layer over the foil. Grill for 5 to 8 minutes then flip. Grill until all of the veggies are tender, remove to a plate.  Lightly heat the pita bread on the grill then remove.  Top the pita with veggies, lettuce, tomato and tzatzizi sauce.
