1 clove garlic minced
½ tsp cumin
Feta Tzaziki Sauce
1 (5.3 ounce) container fat free greek yogurt
4 ounces crumbled feta cheese
2 tablespoons red onion chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup chopped mint
1 teaspoon dry dill
Toppings
3/4 cup persian cucumber, seeded and diced

8 ounces pita chips, store bought or homemade
For homemade pita chips
6 pitas, cut into 6 wedges each
3 tablespoons olive oil
salt or garlic salt
Directions
Baked Pita Chips
Pre-heat oven to 425˚F. Place pita wedges in a single layer directly on a metal sheet pan (no parchment) Bake for 5-10 minutes, until the pita crisps up. With tongs, flip any during baking that start to brown quickly to insure even cooking.
Lamb/Beef Sauté
Heat the oil over medium high heat. Add the onions and cook for 5 minutes until onions are softened & fragrant. Add the garlic, beef and cumin. Combine well. Cook until meat is browned and mix in the olives. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Feta Tzaziki Sauce
Mash the feta and yogurt together with a fork. Mix in the onion, feta, olive oil, lemon juice, mint and dill.
Assemble
In a serving dish, place the pita chips first. Top with the meat, tzaziki and fresh toppings. Serve immediately.
To make your own pita chips: Brush the pitas with olive oil and cut each into 6 triangles. Place the triangles in a single layer on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and bake until they are crispy crunchy, about 10 to 13 minutes. Turn the sheet halfway through cooking to ensure even crispiness.
