Mediterranean nachos (sans the chips)

I love nachos and I looove Mediterranean food (think gyros or poor man's kebab). So I thought, why not combine the two? Technically what I ate would be the equivalent of the toppings of nachos. But these can be made with "chips." Just take some pita, cut it up into little triangles, coat with olive oil and salt and bake in the oven until crispy. Then put the following on top (or eat by itself)!

Mediterranean Nacho Topping (ingredients for two)

1 onion

1 lb ground beef (or lamb)

1-2 tomato (I used Roma)

2-3 Israeli cucumbers

Handful of olives

Tzatziki sauce (store bought or homemade)

Olive oil for cooking

Salt and pepper for taste

1. Put some olive oil in a pan and add one chopped onion. Sweat the onion until translucent. Then add the ground beef and brown until fully cooked.

2. While the meat is cooking, dice your tomatoes and cucumbers. You can also pit the olives if you like.

3. Once meat is cooked, put in serving plate (if using pita chips, put on top of the chips). On top put the tomatoes, cucumbers and olives on top of that and then top with your tzatziki sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!! Read below for a tzatziki recipe...
