Looking for something to top those veggie patties I posted earlier? Hell are you just looking for a fresh, healthy dip that you can put on EVERYTHING? Look no further.
One of the first rules of the starving artist is to never buy anything in the store that you can make better and cheaper yourself… unless you don’t feel like making it. BUT, one thing that I never EVER cheat on is tzatziki sauce – Greek dip made with yogurt and cucumber. Not only is it one of the freshest, most delicious, most versatile sauces you will ever make, it takes literally five minutes to whip together with your food processor. Even if you don’t have a food processor and you do all the mincing/chopping yourself, you’ll only be adding an extra 5 minutes to the process. So. Worth. It.
And believe me when I tell you, this can go on anything: turkey burgers, wraps, raw veggies, chili, tacos, roasted vegetables, wraps, sandwiches, steak, chicken, lamb – the list is endless. Use it as a healthy substitute for mayonnaise or sour cream. I seriously eat it by the spoonful. I would not steer you wrong!

What do you put tzatziki on?
I am definitely going to try this. My whole family loves tzatziki and I make my own yogurt with goat and sheep milk. Thanks for the recipe!
Making your own yogurt – how fun! I bet you’ll never go back to store bought.
Let me know how you like the Tzatziki!!
I plan on making falafels later on in the week and this will be on the menu!
Cheers! Let me know how it turns out!
Tzatziki is the bomb! I could eat it on just about anything! Sometimes I get bored and have to reinvent it. Have you ever tried making it with sour cream? Or adding feta to it? So. Good.
Omg Reeni, the feta idea sounds fantastic. I’ve added chives before and it is delicious – little oniony bite. Yum!
I am big into healthy sauces and ways to dress up the same old thing. Have never made this before – looking forward to trying it! Thanks.
Girl you will love it – I actually just made another batch tonight. I eat it by the spoonful! Hope you enjoy! xx
