All-Purpose Greek Sauce (APGS) does not double but triple duty in these greek sausage wraps. First brush APGS on your sausages as you grill them up to perfection. Then lightly brush it on your pita to soak in the herbaceous flavour. Lastly, use the remaining sauce to toss your crunchy veg in. It’s the perfect sauce - full of garlic, lemon, lots of fresh herbs, with just a touch of sweetness.

- On a hot grill, grill sausage and baste with greek sauce while cooking being sure to reserve 2-3 tbsp of greek sauce for later. Grill until golden and crisp about 5-10 min
- Brush greek sauce on 1 side of pitas. And grill for 1-2 minutes or until soft and slightly crisp.
- Toss cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions in remaining sauce.
- Assemble wraps by placing lettuce on top of grilled pita, adding a sausage on top, then adding the cucumber mixture, and topping with tzatziki.
ADDITIONAL NOTES
Tips: If raw red onions are too strong for you. Soak chopped red onions in an ice bath (ice + water) for 5-10 minutes. Drain and rinse. The harshness of the onion will mellow out.
