Ingredients:
1/2c plain fat-free Greek-style yogurt( I cannot find so finely chopped up cucumber, tomato and black olives to mix in plain yogurt)
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp chopped fresh mint( I used parsley)don't like mint!
1 (12 ounce package fully cooked turkey meatballs
4 (6-inch) multigrain pitas (I used whole wheat, couldn't find multigrain)
1 tomato chopped
1/2 cucumber, peeled, seeded, and diced
Directions:
Combine the yogurt, lemon juice, and chopped mint in a small bowl; set aside.
Spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick spray and set over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook, covered, turning frequently, until heated through, about 5 minutes.
Cut a pocket in each pita. Fill each pocket with 3 meatballs (or 3 ounces), about 2 tbsp of the tomato, about 2 tbsp of the cucumber, about 2 tbsp of the yogurt mixture and mint leaves (if using). Serve at once.
