Homemade Tzatziki

This fresh and easy homemade tzatziki will leave you never going back to store-bought again. It goes great alongside Greek meatballs or any Mediterranean dish. You can also serve as a healthy and delish dip for veggies or pretzel crisps (my mom and I’s personal favorite).

Tzatziki Ingredients:

• ½ cucumber grated and dried

• 1 cup whole milk Greek yogurt

• 1 clove of garlic, grated

• 1 Tbsp lemon juice (juice from half a lemon)

• ½ Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

• 1 Tbsp of mint chopped

• 1 Tbsp of dill chopped

• Dash of salt

Instructions:

1. Add a cup of whole milk Greek yogurt to a container with a lid you can store the tzatziki in.

2. Grate half of a cucumber and remove any big unwanted pieces. Dry out the grated cucumber as much as possible with a paper towel and add into your container.

3. Grate one clove of garlic into the container as well.

4. Add a Tablespoon of fresh lemon juice (juice from half a lemon) and half a Tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil. Chop up a Tablespoon of fresh mint and a Tablespoon of fresh dill and add into the container along with a dash of salt. Mix the Tzatziki all together. And that’s it! You’re ready to serve.
