Gyro Loaf With Tsatziki Sauce


I confess, my husband is a gyro junkie. I had never had the ethereal pleasure of a gyro until he introduced me to the wickedly intoxicating greek concoction a few years ago. The trouble you ask? we were low-carbers for about two years running and it was not cost-effective to make special trips out for a couple of paper-thin slices of meat and some sauce. I developed this recipe out of pure desperation by combining several different recipes (found online) and then adding some of my own ideas and spice.

Steps


Mix loaf ingredients together and shape into a freeform loaf in a baking pan.
Bake at 375f for about 1 hour 15 minutes.
Once loaf has cooled to room temperature or has chilled in the refrigerator , slice it as thin as possible.
Serve it warm or at room temperature.
Can be served in pitas , flatbreads or tortillas with lettuce , tomato , black olives , feta cheese and tsatziki sauce or as a main course with a greek salad , pasta salad or potato salad.
