Pork Flat Bread or Pitas With Avocado Tzatziki

Recipe #302933 | 50 min | 30 min prep | SERVES 6 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Kathy!!

This is a wonderful recipe adapted from Cat Cora. I love to serve it family style and let everyone make their own flatbreads.

      Drain the marinade and grill the pork on outdoor barbeque.
    5. 5
      Strain the yogurt in cheesecloth or fine wire colander for 30 minutes. (Straining the yogurt and disgarding the liquid will make it thicker, but you can skip this step).

      In a medium bowl stir together the yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and salt.
    7. 7
      Peel, remove seeds and grate the cucumber. Squeeze to remove excess liquid. Add to yogurt mixture.

      Add peeled, diced avocado.
    9. 9
      Refrigerate for a least 1 hour.
    10. 10
      To serve place shredded lettuce on pita or flatbread, top with grilled pork and serve with Tzatziki sauce.
    11. 11

    This recipe is sooooo good! We absolutely love it and it's the perfect summer meal. I was really looking forward to grilling our pork outside today but unfortunately it snowed...I know, snow on the 12 of May!!! So we ended up grilling it on our George Foreman. It still turned out amazing. The only problem we have with the recipe is pronouncing tzatziki. Thanks for posting!
