Portobella Mushroom Shwarma Pitas

Serves 4

Total Time 25 min


  • 1 lb. portobello mushroom caps, (remove stem) sliced ½-inch thick
  • 1 medium red onion, halved and cut into ⅓-inch wedges
  • 3 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • ½ teaspoon ground sweet or smoked paprika (optional)
  • Kosher salt and black pepper
  • 4 pitas, (optional)
  • 2 packed cups very thinly sliced red cabbage (about 6 ounces)
  • ¾ cup low-fat or whole-milk Greek or Coconut yogurt
  • ¾ teaspoon ground turmeric
  • Cilantro and or mint, for serving 


  1. Heat the oven to 425 degrees. On a large rimmed sheet pan, drizzle the mushrooms and red onion with 3 tablespoons oil. Sprinkle with cumin, coriander, paprika (if using), 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper; toss to coat. Arrange in an even layer and roast until tender and browned, about 20 minutes. Add the pitas directly to the oven rack to warm during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
  2. Meanwhile, toss cabbage with the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil in a medium bowl; toss to coat. Season generously with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, stir together yogurt and turmeric; season with salt and pepper.
  3. To serve, slather yogurt over warm pitas. Top with cabbage, mushroom mixture, and herbs, and serve immediately.

Enjoy!  (:
