Turkey Gyros image

Greek seasoning, feta cheese and dill-cucumber sauce give this gyro an authentic taste. It was my family's introduction to how really good pita bread can be. Instead of feta cheese, we'll sprinkle on cheddar or Monterey Jack if we have it. -Donna Garvin, Glens Falls, New York

These turkey gyros are a great way to use up leftover turkey. They're also a healthier alternative to traditional gyros.

The pita bread was a bit too thick for my liking. I think I'll try using a thinner pita bread next time.

I found the recipe to be a bit too complicated. I think I'll try a simpler version next time.

The turkey gyros were a bit dry for my taste, but the tzatziki sauce helped to balance it out.

The tzatziki sauce was the perfect complement to the savory turkey and crispy pita bread.
