Ingredients:

Serving

1 large cucumber
2 cups (8 oz) sour cream or plain yogurt
2 tsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp dill weed
1/8 tsp pepper
kabobs:
2 cups buttermilk
2 tsp ground turmeric
2 tsp curry powder
1 tsp coarsely ground pepper
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp minced fresh sage
1/2 tsp salt
2-1/2 lb lean boneless lamb, cut into 1-inch cubes
16 cubes fresh pineapple (1-inch)
16 cherry tomatoes
salad:
8 cups torn leaf lettuce
2 cups torn romaine
2 cups torn bibb or boston lettuce
1/2 large sweet onion, sliced
1/2 medium red onion, finely chopped
1 medium tomato, chopped
1/2 cup bean sprouts
1/2 cup green grapes, quartered
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/4 cup butter, softened
2 tbsp honey
4 pita breads (6 inches), halved and warmed

Directions:

Peel cucumber and remove seeds. Place cucumber in a food processor; cover and process until finely chopped. Remove half of cucumber; set aside. Process remaining cucumber until pureed. Combine pureed cucumber and reserved cucumber; stir in the sour cream, lemon juice and seasonings. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
In a small bowl, combine the first seven kabob ingredients. Pour 1-1/2 cups marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add the lamb. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade for basting.
Drain and discard marinade. On eight metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternately thread lamb, pineapple and tomatoes.
In a large bowl, combine the lettuces, onions, tomato, sprouts, grapes and walnuts; sprinkle with cheese. Set aside.
Grill kabobs, covered, over medium heat for 5-6 minutes on each side or until lamb reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 145°; medium, 160°; well-done, 170°), basting frequently with reserved marinade.
Beat butter and honey until blended; brush over pitas. Serve with kabobs, salad and sauce. Yield: 8 servings.
