Easy Tzatziki
Incredibly Easy To Make Simple Ingredient List Versatile & Delicious Healthier Than Most Dips/Sauces
Tzatziki is creamy, flavorful and very simple to make. It’s one of the only sauces I know of that uses cucumbers, which is what makes it really refreshing. Loaded with fresh herbs, garlic, bright lemon, and simple spices, you’re going to want to put this tzatziki on EVERYTHING!
Ingredient Notes
Cucumber – I used an English cucumber, peeled and grated. An English cucumber is a cucumber that is generally sweeter than regular cucumber and it’s longer and sometimes thinner. Feel free to chop or blend your cucumber for different textures. I prefer grating because I find it creates the perfect consistency. Greek Yogurt – You can use regular plain yogurt, but I recommend using Greek yogurt, since it’s a bit thicker and I find that it tastes a lot better too! Spices – Cayenne pepper (optional), sea salt, & pepper. Garlic – Fresh is best! I usually use 2 small cloves for this recipe, but if you don’t like a strong garlic flavor, use less. Lemon Juice – I always prefer freshly squeezed, use what you have on hand. Dill – Fresh, chopped. Some people prefer to use mint, but I am dill’s #1 fan!

Storing Leftovers
Tzatziki sauce is best served when it’s prepared. However if you have some leftover sauce, transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate it. It will last in the fridge about 2 days.
