Greek Beef Wraps with Herbed Yogurt Sauce

 

Inspired by similar ideas on social media - January 2026

If you do not wish to use Tortilla wraps, there are three alternative

ideas for creating wraps purely from vegetables, eggs and cheese.

Or you could use fresh crispy cabbage leaves or lettuce leaves.

​

As with so many of my recipes, you can substitute the beef for chicken, turkey,

Quorn, Tofu or salmon, prawns or any other fish.

​

Try pickling red onion and/or red cabbage in red wine vinegar

and sugar and store in the fridge for up to three weeks in a jar with lid.

 

 

Ingredients

 

For the Beef

 

• 500 g ground beef or cubed beef steak

• 1 tablespoon olive oil

• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

• 1 teaspoon dried oregano

• ½ teaspoon smoked paprika

• Salt and black pepper to taste

 

For the Herbed Yogurt Sauce

 

• ½ cup plain Greek yogurt

• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley or dill

• 1 clove garlic, minced

• Salt and black pepper to taste

​

For the Wraps

 

4 large whole wheat tortillas or flatbreads

1 cup chopped lettuce or mixed greens

1 medium tomato, diced

½ small cucumber, diced

½ cup red onion, thinly sliced and pre-marinaded in pickling liquid of vinegar and sugar

¼ cup crumbled feta cheese

Method

​

1. Cook the Beef

 

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

Add ground beef, garlic powder, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.

Cook for 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is fully cooked and lightly browned.

 

2. Prepare the Herbed Yogurt Sauce

 

In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, parsley or dill, salt, and pepper until smooth.

 

3. Assemble the Wraps

 

Lay out tortillas or flatbreads.

Layer each with chopped lettuce, diced tomato, cucumber, red onion, and cooked beef.

Drizzle generously with herbed yogurt sauce and sprinkle with crumbled feta.

 

4. Serve

 

Fold the wraps and serve immediately while warm.
