Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Preparation: Partially peel half of a cucumber then remove all seeds. Finely grate it in a food processor or with a box grater. I usually then run my knife over the grated cucumber on a cutting board to get it extra fine but you don’t have to. Then put the grated cucumber in a kitchen towel and wring out all of the moisture. Mince 2 cloves of garlic (= 1 tsp). Chop 1 tsp fresh dill.
  2. In a bowl, stir together the grated and drained cucumber, Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and dill. Give it a taste and add more garlic and dill if needed.
  3. That’s it! Serve with veggies or pita or in a gyro. Head on over to my Greek Veggie Pizza to see another way to use this tzatziki sauce!
Recipe Notes

You can easily double this recipe if you are feeding a crowd or just want more to use throughout your week. If you don’t wring out your cucumber of excess moisture it can make the dip watery after it sits awhile in the refrigerator, but just give it a good stir and it should be fine.
