Beef Gyros with Tzatziki
Shaved, crisp-edged gyro meat with no spit needed. 49g protein.
Real gyro texture without a vertical spit. Blitzing seasoned lean beef into a tacky paste and baking it as a loaf gives you dense, sliceable meat that crisps in a hot pan like it came off the cone, and thick garlicky tzatziki and warm pita do the rest.
