Expert Tips

Make the Dill-Cucumber Topping up to a day ahead of time, and store in the refrigerator.

Use 4 whole wheat buns instead of the pita breads. Try plain yogurt instead of the sour cream in the topping.

    These are really yummy! The grilled veggies really add to the flavor and the dill cucumber topping goes perfect on it. Even if you don't like veggie burger much, these still taste great!
