Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Combine onion and cilantro in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until minced. Add ground beef substitute, paprika, Greek seasoning, cumin, cinnamon, cayenne, salt, and pepper; pulse until well combined. Form mixture into eight 4x2-inch patties. (15 minutes)

03

Step

Cook patties on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center, 7 to 8 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). (15 minutes)

04

Step

Fill each pita half with shredded lettuce, diced tomato, diced onion, 1 tablespoon tzatziki, and a cooked patty. (5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a drizzle of lemon juice or a sprinkle of sumac to the finished pitas.
Feel free to customize the toppings to your liking. Cucumber, pickled onions, or a dollop of hummus would also be delicious additions.
If you don't have an outdoor grill, you can cook the patties in a skillet over medium-high heat.
