Instructions
Drain the Cucumber
Grate the cucumber on a box grater then place in a clean towel and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. This step is important so the tzatziki stays thick and creamy.
Mix the Base
In a large bowl combine the Greek yogurt, drained cucumber, minced garlic, and chopped dill. Stir everything together until well combined and smooth.
Season and Finish
Add the lemon juice and a pinch of salt to the tzatziki mixture and stir well. Taste and adjust seasoning according to your family preferences.
Chill and Serve
Drizzle with olive oil and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes before serving. Kids love dipping pita strips and colorful veggie sticks into this creamy sauce.
