Epic Mediterranean Pita Sandwiches with Shish Taouk Tofu

 

Part Greek, part Lebanese, and wholly delicious, this Mediterranean fusion dish comes together in under 20 minutes for a healthy and satisfying WHF lunch or quick dinner. If you're fresh out of pitas, this makes an equally delicious meal salad.

Serves 6

Ingredients

  • 1 package Epic Shish Taouk Marinated Tofu Chunks
  • 4 TBSP extra virgin olive oil, divided
  • 2 tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 English cucumber, chopped
  • 1 small red onion, sliced into rounds
  • 1/2 head romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 1/2 TSP dried oregano or 2 TSP fresh oregano, finely chopped
  • Juice from 1 lemon
  • 1 cup tzatziki
  • 6 pitas
  • S&P to taste

Preparation

  1. In a large non-stick pan, heat 1-2 TBSP of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the Epic Shish Taouk Tofu and cook, stirring occasionally, for 7-8 mins—until golden. Remove from heat.

  2. In a large bowl, combine tomatoes, cucumber, lettuce, and onion. Drizzle with lemon juice and 2 TBSP olive oil & stir to combine. Season with oregano and S&P.

  3. Serve family-style and build your own pita sandwich, adding tofu, salad and tzatziki.
