Gyro-Style Turkey Pitas

Source: taste of home

Ingredients: serves 4
1 lb. ground turkey
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 cup sauerkraut, rinsed and well drained
2 T brown sugar
1/2 t salt
2/3 cup sour cream
3 T mayo
2 T Ranch
1 small tomato, chopped
1/3 cup chopped cucumber
4 pits breads, halved and warmed
Shredded lettuce

Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook the turkey, onion, sauerkraut, brown sugar and salt over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Note: we used 93/7 turkey and there was nothing to drain
2. While the turkey is cooking....in a small bowl, combine the sour cream, mayo and Ranch. Stir in tomato and cucumber.
3. Fill pita halves with turkey mixture, lettuce and sauce.

What we did different:
Used fat free sour cream. Used light mayo. I stuffed as much as I could get into half a pita and then had a little salad on the side with the leftover.

What we'll do different next time:
Double the sauerkraut. Mix turkey mixture, dressing and lettuce all together and then put into the pita. Try it without the salt. And repeat "what we did different"
