Tempeh Gyros with Tzatziki

Indulge your fast-food craving with a healthier gyro that captures the spirit of the traditional meaty street cart meal. Tempeh’s firm texture and boundless flavor adaptability makes it an excellent stand-in for lamb meat. Braising the tempeh removes its bitter edge and infuses it with herbaceous umami flavor. Silken tofu blends into a naturally smooth consistency, lending rich creaminess to tangy tzatziki sauce. Our plant-forward version packs 22g quality protein and saves 300mg sodium over the Greek classic. Serve it on a whole-grain pita or Flatout Light flatbread to keep calories in check; you can find them at most supermarkets, usually in the bakery section.
