Description

A quick and flavorful wrap featuring spiced ground beef, fresh vegetables, and creamy whipped feta, all tucked into warm pita bread for a satisfying Mediterranean-inspired meal.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef (85% lean)
  • 4 large pita bread rounds
  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1 medium cucumber, diced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish


Instructions

  1. In a small food processor, blend the feta cheese and Greek yogurt until smooth and creamy to make the whipped feta. Set aside.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef, oregano, cumin, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Cook, breaking up the meat, until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
  3. While the beef cooks, combine the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in a bowl to make a simple salad.
  4. Warm the pita bread in a dry skillet or microwave for 20-30 seconds until pliable.
  5. To assemble, spread a generous layer of whipped feta on each pita. Top with the cooked ground beef and the vegetable salad. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
