Don't remember where this one came from, but I've been making these for years. Very refreshing and tasty, great for a hot summer dinner with salad on the side. When it's really hot, I like these with cold, fresh tomato slices stuffed inside.

SERVES 4 -6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

3-4 pita bread rounds, cut into halves
1 lb ground beef or ground buffalo meat
1 1/4 ounces dry onion soup mix
1-1 1/2 cup water
1/4-1/2 cup yogurt, plain
3-5 fresh mint leaves, chopped fine or 1-2 tablespoon dried mint flakes
sliced tomato (optional)

Directions

1
Fry ground beef or ground Bison in 10-12 inch skillet over medium heat, breaking up until it is fine and no pink remains. Drain off any excess grease and return to skillet.
2
Add onion soup packet and water. Stir to distribute evenly. Reduce heat to low and simmer covered until onion is tender, about 15-20 minutes and replacing the cover when done stirring.
3
Turn off heat. Stir in yogurt. Let sit 5-10 minutes until heated through - do NOT allow to boil - remove from heat, if necessary.
4
Stir in mint, cover and let sit for 3-5 more minutes.
5
Spoon into pita bread halves and serve. Add sliced tomato if desired.
