Greek Chicken Gyros
These easy Greek Chicken Gyros transport you to the Mediterranean Authentic Greek Chicken Gyros are super simple and so delicious.

Do you have any idea how hard it is to do that with someone that doesn’t eat meat? Ha Ha!! I found a recipe recently that sounded really good and reminded me of both Eileen and her daughter. I figured I would give it a try as Tom is always…
