    Not chicken wraps with herbed yoghurt


    Source of Recipe


    Adapted from a Woolworths recipe


    Recipe Introduction


    serves 4 The original recipe called this yoghurt sauce "tzaziki" but I am almost sure tzaziki has garlic. Either way this is delicious. If you don't want to use yoghurt you can use tahini. Then you may need some water to make t a drizzling consitency. Tahini has a lot of iron in it which can be good.
