Greek Marinated Steak Gyros with Greek Yogurt Dip
Hello my friends! It is FINALLY miserably hot here so summer has arrived in Alabama! YAY! Today I am sharing one of our favorite summer time recipes along with a SUPER FUN SWEET SUMMER GIVEAWAY! We are HUGE fans of Stoneyfield Greek Yogurt and love using the good for you stuff in marinades, dips, dressings and also just for snacking 🙂 This recipe uses their Greek yogurt in the marinade and in the dipping sauce! Greek yogurt makes a wonderful marinade because it tenderizes the meat while adding amazing flavor. Between the succulent marinated grilled steak, crunch of the veggies, tang of the feta, a warm pita, and the delicious dipping sauce topping, this may be my all time favorite recipe! Give it a try!
