In a large resealable plastic bag combine the marinade and cut beef sirloin, seal and refrigerate 4 to 24 hours.  Soak bamboo skewers in water for about 2 hours so they do not burn on the grill. For the Pita Bread,  combine the olive oil and minced garlic in a small bowl and let marinate .

Tzatiziki Sauce, combine the greek yogurt and minced garlic in a bowl and refrigerate.

Assemble the skewers with marinated beef, bell peppers, onion, marinated beef, zucchini and repeat. Discard the marinade once the skewers are assembled.  Grill skewers for 10 minutes, turning every 2 1/2 minutes, until vegetables are tender.
