This easy tzatziki recipe is great as a dip and can be served as an appetizer with fresh vegetables, toasted pita, or served as a sauce with fresh fish or roasted vegetables. This recipe is made in less than 30 minutes and is gluten free and dairy free. It’s one of my favorite recipes to make during cucumber season!Â
For this recipe, you will need:
Cucumber
Yogurt: I used a dairy free coconut yogurt, but any plain yogurt will work, just check the label for added refined sugar and natural flavors
Olive Oil: I like to use EVOO (extra virgin) because it’s not refined or processed
Mint or Dill: I use fresh herbs for the best flavor
Lemon Juice
Garlic: this has so many healthy benefits including being great for your immune system
Salt
How to Store:
- Store in the refrigerator in a sealed container for up to 2 weekÂ
