Close up of uncooked Lamb Souvlaki Pizza

A few days ago I shared with you my recipe for lamb souvlaki and I was pretty excited to tell you how much I loved it. We used some of the meat to make this amazing greek style pizza with the lamb and it turned out delicious beyond belief.

As I said before I’m not a fan of lamb but this lamb was so delicious, it literally melts in your mouth. I also love greek flavors, like feta cheese, red onions, olives and oregano. So when you put all those delicious ingredients on a pizza, well you have a winner in my book. It’s to die for! We also made tzatziki sauce and if you’re going to make this pizza you must make the tzatziki sauce, the two together, unbelievable.

You ought to try it, you might end up with a favorite pizza. Why order pizza when you can make this at home? Nothing compares to a pizza made with love in your home.
