Sometimes, it’s all about the sauce… in this case, a cucumber garlic yogurt sauce, also known as tzaziki sauce. If you’ve ever had Greek food before, you may have tried this delightful, savory sauce, bursting with the rich flavors of garlic and lemon. Complemented by the crunch of cucumber and the creaminess of yogurt, this sauce is a wonderful marriage of flavors and textures!

This tzaziki yogurt sauce recipe can be made in big batches and stored in the refrigerator for several days in an airtight container. This sauce pairs excellently with grilled chicken, beef or lamb, but also works well with simple grilled vegetables.

Let’s get to the recipe now, shall we?
