Greek pita burgers with creamy, cool, and refreshing cucumber yogurt sauce makes for a delicious lightened up meal!

Anyone else love burgers as much as I do? I’ve shared quite a few burger recipes on here (even in salad form) and because there are so many ways to customize a burger I can just eat it every day. Lately I’m on a mission to eat a little healthier, so I’m sharing one of my current favorite meals to make – Greek Pita Burgers with Tzatziki Sauce!

Tzatziki is a Greek dip made with thick strained yogurt, cucumber, garlic, lemon juice, and fresh dill. It’s so delicious I like to make a little extra and eat it as a snack with pita chips or fresh vegetables. You can also serve it as a sauce with grilled chicken, lamb chops, or in gyros.

Author Karen @ The Tasty Bite

Ingredients

For the tzatziki sauce:

1 small seedless cucumber shredded
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp fresh dill chopped
2 tsps lemon juice
1 garlic clove minced
Salt and pepper to taste

For the burgers:

4 Trident Seafoods® Wild Alaskan Pollock Burgers
4 8- inch pita breads
1 small cucumber sliced
2 medium tomatoes sliced
1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese

Instructions

To make the tzatziki sauce, place shredded cucumber in clean dish towel or cheesecloth and squeeze to remove any excess liquid.
Combine with remaining ingredients in a mixing bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
To make the burgers, prepare the burgers according to package directions.
Assemble by placing cucumber slices, tomatoes, and cooked burger on pita bread topped with tzatziki sauce and crumbled feta cheese. Fold over and serve immediately.

Notes

*Reserve cucumber juice and add to tzatziki mixture as needed if you prefer a thinner consistency.
