Refreshing and flavorful: Tzatziki dip has a tangy, refreshing taste that comes from the combination of yogurt and cucumber. The addition of garlic, dill, and lemon juice enhances the flavor profile, making it a delicious and satisfying dip or sauce.
Use it as a dipping sauce for vegetables, pita bread, or falafel. It also works well as a condiment for veggie burgers, sandwiches, or wraps, adding a burst of flavor and moisture.
