Gyro pizza combines the savory flavors of traditional Greek gyro meat with the comforting base of pizza. This fusion dish typically includes pita bread, seasoned gyro meat, tomatoes, onions, and a creamy tzatziki sauce, creating a unique and delicious culinary experience.

Storage Time

3–4 days in the refrigerator, up to 2–3 months in the freezer for optimal quality.

Temperature

Keep refrigerated at 4°C (40°F) or below to maintain freshness and prevent bacterial growth.

Freezing

To freeze gyro pizza, wrap individual slices tightly in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer bag or airtight container to prevent freezer burn. For best results, consume within 2–3 months. Thaw frozen gyro pizza in the refrigerator overnight or reheat directly from frozen in an oven or microwave until heated through. Be aware that freezing may slightly alter the texture of the crust and toppings.

Signs of Spoilage

• Sour or ammonia-like odor emanating from the pizza.
• Slimy or sticky texture on the gyro meat or vegetables.
• Visible mold growth on the crust or toppings.
• Discoloration of the gyro meat, such as turning gray or green.
