Ingredients
Mint Tzatziki
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons fresh mint chopped
- 1 mini cucumber finely grated and squeezed of all liquid (about 2 tablespoons)
- 1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice fresh is best
- 1 clove garlic finely minced
- 1 pinch sea salt
Grilled Mini Peppers
- 16 mini peppers
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- A pinch of sea salt and a few grinds of pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high. Soak 8 wooden skewers on a plate with a little water.
- Combine all the mint tzatziki ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl and mix well.
- Toss the peppers with the olive oil, sea salt, and pepper then slide the peppers onto the skewers, using 2 skewers for each row of peppers, so they don't twirl around when you flip them.
- Grill the peppers for 5 minutes, or until they're soft and have nice grill marks on them, turning once. Serve the grilled peppers right away with the mint tzatziki on the side. Note: Don't worry about the seeds when you eat them. Just pick the pepper up by the stem and eat the whole thing (minus the stem).

Notes
- As long as your peppers are large enough that they won't fall through the spaces on your gill, you can skip skewering the peppers.
