Tzatziki Sauce
Report
This homemade Tzatziki Sauce is fresh and flavorful, thanks to the grated cucumber, lemon juice, and fresh dill. We like to serve this as a dip for fresh veggies or pita bread, or as a sauce on sandwiches.

Ingredients
- ½ English cucumber
- ¼ cup fresh dill
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 1/2 cups plain greek yogurt
- ½ lemon juiced
- salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Using a box grater, grate the cucumber onto a tea towel. Gently squeeze the liquid from the cucumber and place the cucumber into a small mixing bowl.
- Chop the dill and mince the garlic and add to the cucumber along with the yogurt and lemon juice.
- Stir well to combine the mixture and add salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve immediately or store in an air tight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Notes
- We prefer the flavor of full fat Greek yogurt, but nonfat also works in this recipe.
- Some tzatziki recipes call for fresh mint. We prefer it without, but you may add in about a tablespoon of chopped mint, if desired.
- If serving as a dip, we often drizzle a bit of olive oil over the top.
