Default Donair or Gyros

This is a recipe I adapted to LC. It really does taste like a Donair. The sauce can also be made with yogurt, cucumber & garlic to make Gyros.

Meat
4 lb Ground beef
2 t Onion powder
4 t Garlic powder
2 t Oregano, dried
2 t Parsley, dried
2 t Ground pepper
2 t Chili powder
2 t Cayenne pepper
2 eggs

Sauce
8 oz Cream Cheese - softened
6 t Splenda (or to taste)
2 cloves Garlic - chopped
3 t Vinegar (or to taste)

Toppings
1/2 Green Pepper - chopped
1/2 Tomato - chopped
1/4 Onion - chopped

1 Regrind ground beef until you have a smooth paste. You don't have to do this but it makes for a better texture. I use my food processor.
2 Add spices and two eggs. Kneed until well mixed.
3 Press mixture tightly into meat loaf pan. Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 300° for 1-1/2 to 2 hours, checking it every half hour, and drain the fat off if necessary.
4 In the meantime combine cream cheese, chopped garlic, Splenda & vinegar to taste and mix until smooth.
5 Cut thin slices from meat and quickly fry before topping with chopped vegetables and sauce.
