My wife is in the other room assembling kebobs with Italian sweet peppers, oyster mushrooms and onions. I marinated the lamb in olive oil, lemon juice, Greek oregano, pressed garlic and black pepper. My wife made herself a tzaziki sauce with Greek yogurt, grated and squeezed cucumber, olive oil, lemon juice and a little salt. The lamb already has garlic, and she likes garlic only in small doses. Were going to put them under the broiler, and toss some black olives onto the baking sheet when they're more than half done. She has two kebobs, and I just scattered to rest of the fixings and we applied a little more olive oil. Now, into the oven. My wife had wanted tomatoes in the mix, and she thought we had some, but we didn't.
I'll post links to pix. Notice there's not a pita in sight. No empty carbs.
