Low-fat cheese reduces calories while maintaining flavor.

ham

🥗Healthier: turkey

💰Cheaper: bacon

Turkey is leaner, while bacon adds a smoky flavor.

ketchup

🥗Healthier: homemade tomato sauce

Homemade sauce is fresher and can be customized.

mushrooms

🥗Healthier: spinach

💰Cheaper: canned mushrooms

Spinach adds nutrients and is often less expensive.

Remove stalks from mushrooms and peel off the hats.

Dice mushrooms finely or use a blender.

Preheat the pan with olive oil.

Add diced onion to the pan and sauté for a few minutes.

Add the mushrooms to the pan and season with salt and pepper.

Dehydrate the mushroom mixture for a few minutes.

Add butter to the pan with the mushroom mixture.

Let the mixture cool down.

Mix the cooled mixture with gyros spice mix and minced garlic.

Use unbaked baguettes, noting that smaller ones are easier to cut.

Spread the gyros butter on the baguettes.

Add the fried mushroom mixture on top of the butter.

Sprinkle grated cheese over the mushrooms.

Bake in the oven for 10 minutes at 190°C (374°F).

Finish with ketchup and garlic sauce or your favorite sauces.
