Cook the Meat: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground meat of your choice. As it begins to brown, add garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, oregano, paprika, coriander, and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Continue to cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until fully cooked through and well-seasoned. Set aside and keep warm.

Make the Tzatziki: While the meat is cooking, grate the cucumber and squeeze out excess moisture with a clean towel or paper towel. In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, chopped dill, and a pinch of salt. Mix until creamy and refrigerate until ready to use.

Prepare the Base: If using rice or couscous, cook it according to package instructions. If opting for a lighter version, wash and chop romaine lettuce and set aside.

Chop the Veggies: Dice the tomatoes and cucumbers, slice the red onion, and crumble the feta cheese if not pre-crumbled. Gather olives and hummus if using.

Assemble the Bowls: Start with your base—rice, couscous, or lettuce. Add a generous scoop of the spiced meat. Top with diced tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions, feta cheese, and a dollop of tzatziki. Add olives or hummus for extra flavor if desired.

Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve warm. These bowls can be enjoyed immediately or packed up for a meal later.
