Ingredients
-
1 medium onion, cut into chunks
-
¼ cup fresh cilantro leaves
-
1 ½ (12 ounce) packages meatless ground beef substitute (such as Impossible(TM) Foods)
-
2 teaspoons ground paprika
-
1 teaspoon Greek seasoning
-
1 teaspoon ground cumin
-
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
-
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
-
salt and ground black pepper to taste
-
4 (6 inch) pita bread rounds, cut in half
-
½ cup shredded lettuce, or to taste
-
¼ cup diced tomato, or to taste
-
2 tablespoons diced onion, or to taste
-
8 tablespoons tzatziki
Directions
-
Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
-
Combine onion and cilantro in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until minced. Add ground beef substitute, paprika, Greek seasoning, cumin, cinnamon, cayenne, salt, and pepper; pulse until well combined. Form mixture into eight 4x2-inch patties.
-
Cook patties on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center, 7 to 8 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
-
Fill each pita half with shredded lettuce, diced tomato, diced onion, 1 tablespoon tzatziki, and a cooked patty.
Cook's Note:
You can use hummus instead of tzatziki, and pico de gallo instead of diced onion.
