Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Toast pine nuts in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring until nuts are barely browned; remove them from skillet and set aside.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  3. Add white parts of sliced green onion, cinnamon, salt and pepper; cook until onion is tender, about 2 or 3 minutes.
  4. Stir in minced garlic, diced tomatoes and raisins; cook over medium high heat until mixture is almost dry – this should only take a few minutes.
  5. Add ground turkey, stirring until meat is cooked through.
  6. Remove skillet from heat; stir in green parts of sliced green onion, yogurt and toasted pine nuts.
  7. Serve mixture stuffed into warm pita halves with any of the optional garnishes, or just as is.
  8. For pizza, butter one side of a pita round and toast in a skillet until browned on the bottom.
  9. Place pita on baking sheet, and spread hummus to within 1/2” of the edges.
  10. Top hummus with cooked meat filling, and top with some crumbled feta.
  11. Bake at 400 degrees until just warmed through, about 5 minutes.
  12. Top with optional ingredients, if desired, of chopped tomatoes, onions, parsley, or anything else you think sounds good!
  13. Tzatziki Sauce:
  14. 1 cucumber, peeled, cut in half lengthwise, seeds removed from center, cucumber finely diced and pieces squeezed as dry as possible with some paper towels
  15. 1 cup Greek yogurt
  16. 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  17. 2 or 3 garlic cloves, freshly minced, to your taste
  18. Salt, to your taste
  19. To prepare tzatziki sauce, mix all ingredients together in a bowl, and allow it to set for a couple hours minimum; keep sauce refrigerated.
