Some dinners take an hour of planning. This one takes about as long as the skewers need to cook.

Chicken souvlaki pitas are the Tuesday-night recipe by definition: pre-seasoned skewers, a few fresh vegetables, some tzatziki, and you're done. No sauce to build, no marinade to start the night before.

It's also a forgiving recipe. A cucumber that's gone a bit soft, tomatoes at their ripest, the last of the feta: all of it lands exactly where it belongs inside a pita. That's precisely the kind of food you'll find as surplus on FoodHero, at 25 to 60% off, with nothing lost in flavour.

Grab your pitas.
