Cooking Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 pound of ground beef and cook for about 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned. Season with salt, pepper, and oregano to taste. Once the beef is nearly cooked, add 1 cup of sliced mushrooms and continue sautéing for an additional 4–5 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and everything is well combined.
- While the beef and mushrooms cook, mix together 1 cup of Greek yogurt, 1 diced cucumber, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tablespoon of fresh dill in a bowl. Squeeze in the juice of half a lemon and stir until well combined. Allow the tzatziki sauce to chill in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes.
- Warm the pita bread either in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 1–2 minutes on each side or in a preheated oven at 350°F for 5 minutes.
- Take a warm pita and carefully open it up to create a pocket. Spoon in the beef and mushroom mixture, packing it generously, and then drizzle a few spoonfuls of the fresh tzatziki sauce on top.
- Arrange the pita pockets on a platter or serve individually, enjoying their vibrant flavors and textures.

Notes
Experiment with different melting cheeses and veggie swaps for personalization. Make tzatziki ahead to enhance flavors.
