Tzatziki Sauce

 
 
With summer right around the corner, and stockpile of cucumbers, I decided to make a sauce that is cool and refreshing. I would describe tzatziki sauce as simple yet versatile. It takes just minutes to make but it adds a boost of flavor to your dish. I tested the sauce on a filet of seared salmon and assorted veggies and it was great! I can guarantee you this is a great veggie dip for your next party or picnic!!     

Ingredients: Makes about 1.5 Cups of Sauce

Cucumber--- 1 (Good sized)
Greek Yogurt--- 1 CUP
Garlic (minced)---  1 Clove
Lemon Juice--- 1 TBSP
Olive Oil--- 1 TSP
Dill (chopped)--- To Taste
Salt and Pepper--- To Taste

Step By Step:

  • Grate cucumber into small, thin strips. Pat graded cucs with a paper towel to remove excess water.

  • Add yogurt, garlic, lemon juice and oil. Mix evenly. Season by stirring in salt, pepper and dill


  • Your tzatizki is ready to be served however, this sauce gets better if it is refrigerated for a few hours.   
Enjoy!
