One of the easiest meals to make are these Crock Pot Chicken Gyros. I mean literally you throw everything in the crock pot except the flatbread, sauce and tomatoes and let it do the work for you. I usually make these when I know we won’t have a lot of time to eat since all you have to do is scoop the mixture onto a flatbread, wrap it up and eat.
The sauce can be a dad bit messy so I recommend not eating them on the go. We’ve tried this and it was not a success. Feel free to customize this recipe to your liking as there are many options to add and take away. This is one recipe you can’t go wrong with and great for the whole family to enjoy.

I made Chicken Gyros last night for the first time and it was so delicious. I make a cucumber yogurt sauce that was so delicious!
