Feta & Lamb Pita Burger
"Lamb with oregano mint & yogurt - add some other condiments and you have a great burger. This burger is one of Canadian Living's magazine top 5 lamb burgers and it deserves it! To add some crunch to the burger chop some cucumber & tomato & place in the bottom of the pita. There are some modifications by me to the original recipe."
