This is the Best Greek Tzatziki Sauce recipe ever. It is fresh, homemade and has dill & mint in it which gives it such depth of flavor.

This is my go to tzatziki recipe, it does not compare to anything you could buy in the store. 

Kind like spinach dip, you do not want the store bought you want homemade. Same goes for tzatziki, it just tastes fresh homemade and real. 

So please forget the store bought kind because this stuff is in a whole other caliber. 

YUM!

Tzatziki is a greek sauce that is made from thick Greek yogurt, fresh english cucumbers, fresh garlic, olive oil, and dill. Some people also add mint. 

I add both!! Why not? It is sooooo good. 

This tzatziki is sure to be one of the best varieties you have ever tasted.

TRUST ME!

It goes great with just about any Greek meal and it’s a very very easy to make!!

Simply add in your grated and chopped vegetables, stir and you’re ready to eat it!

Serve it with chicken, lamb or just about any other type of Greek Main dish.

Eat as much as you want, because it’s super healthy for you too. 

And because of the Greek Yogurt, it also has a ton of protein. 

MAN OH MAN, THIS IS THE GOOD STUFF!

For best results chill it in an airtight container for up to 2 hours or more before serving.

The longer it chills in the fridge the thicker it becomes and the flavors really set in.
