Mediterranean beef pitas

This is a family favorite and SUPER easy. To give credit where it's due, I found this recipe in a Real Simple issue.

Mediterranean beef pitas

1 lb. of ground beef
pocketless pitas or tandori bread
hummus
flat-leaf parsley
red onion
lemons
olive oil
dried oregano
salt and pepper

Shape beef into 16 patties. Season with salt, pepper, and 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano. Brown over medium heat, 2 minutes per side. Top 4 pocketless pitas with hummus, the patties, flat-leaf parsley, and sliced red onion. Drizzle with olive oil and serve with lemon wedges.

The flavor is awesome! Each ingredients adds something unique to the overall flavor. Unless there's something you're completely opposed to, try the recipe as is.
