Easy Kofta Wraps

8

These simple Mediterranean Kofta Wraps are packed with flavor and baked in your oven for easy clean up. You can also skewer them and cook on a grill or in a pan. The baked way is just easier for me personally. You can skip the flatbreads and use lettuce wraps here instead. But DO NOT skip on the Tzatziki… it is a must for them!
