Gyro Loaf With Tsatziki Sauce image

I confess, my husband is a gyro junkie. I had never had the ethereal pleasure of a gyro until he introduced me to the wickedly intoxicating Greek concoction a few years ago. The trouble you ask? We were low-carbers for about two years running and it was not cost-effective to make special trips out for a couple of paper-thin slices of meat and some sauce. I developed this recipe out of pure desperation by combining several different recipes (found online) and then adding some of my own ideas and spice.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I would try a simpler recipe next time.

The tzatziki sauce was a bit too garlicky for me. I would use less garlic next time.

This gyro loaf was a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add more liquid next time.
