trader joes gyro

I shared this easy recipe on Instagram last week, but I wanted to share it here also so it was easier to find!  My friend Nicole told me about these easy Trader Joe’s gyros, and I have to say I was impressed and shocked.  They are really good and taste restaurant-level to me.

INGREDIENTS:

gyro meat – I use two slices for one gyro but you can use less or more

tzatziki sauce – you can make your own if you’re ambitious

pita bread – or garlic naan or Middle Eastern flatbread

optional:

chopped red or green onion

cucumber

tomatoes

fresh parsley

Greek seasoning

DIRECTIONS:

Warm gyro meat slices for 30 seconds (as instructed on box).  Warm your pita or bread and layer up your gyro.

ENJOY.  That’s it.  Seriously easy, wildly delicious and I feel confident it will surprise you.  It really surprised me!

  1. I’ve been a fan of the homemade gyros all summer. They make a great interactive build your own meal for casual grill and chill dinner with friends. As a meat option I grill marinated chicken thighs, and serve it with cilantro/turmeric rice. Yum!

  2. We had these for dinner the past two nights. Easy, delicious and 15 month old approved! Thanks for sharing.

  3. I just can’t hold my tongue anymore! You need to cut the pita bread and fill it! The less messy and best way to consume ANYTHING with a pita bread. They are hollow inside, so just cut an inch or two, and stuff it.

    Love the recipe though, so easy to make and so tasty!

    1. I am laughing out loud – it doesn’t bother me to eat it like wrap but a pocket is a GREAT idea too. Thank you for your suggestion, please never hold your tongue when it’s a helpful note! xoxo

  4. This was SO delicious and easy! Thanks for sharing! I’d also HIGHLY recommend their frozen falafels. Very tasty!
