This is great on alot of different things, like grilled meat and veggies. If you use a regular cucumber instead of an English cucumber, be sure to scrape the seeds out before dicing it. Also, if using freshly chopped dill weed instead of dried, use about 1 tbsp.

A favorite Mediterranean sauce we all know and love! Made right at home!

I have been playing around with this recipe for a while now, and I finally decided to sit down and log how I made this sauce. I feel like I have a pretty solid idea down, but I am always open to improvements. This is my first recipe ever, so hopefully you will like it! I hope I can continue to create, share, and find new recipes with this awesome community. Thanks! * P.S. I have been working on the recipe because the 3/4 tbl of garlic powder gives it a strong garlic taste. Try about 1/2 tbl of garlic salt (instead of powder) for less garlic flavor, and more of a refreshing taste if you would like. Thanks and happy mixing! (Don't know if I would call this cooking yet haha)

Awesome Sauce

Gotta make it for Gyros and dip

watched a buddy who worked in a greek restaurant make this a long time ago. i call this the over the shoulder kipe.

While this recipe may take some time on your part, you will not regret your efforts by any means. I mean that! Neither will your family or guests! Just know that this recipe is so easy to follow, my 7 and 8 year old culinary students made this dish tonight with little supervision and, minimal follow up questions.This dish is so flavorful and downright juicy folks! Between the moisture in your brined chicken, especially your oversized mushrooms and your Tzatziki Sauce, you won't even need a beer to follow it up with! Hence the need to serve them with a thick, seasoned, absorbent, oversized piece of Naan Bread!Know that this dish also makes a great vegetarian option as well. As for the Tzatziki Sauce, it's a bit untraditional with the addition of the fresh minced chives and it being heavy on the sour cream as opposed to the Greek Yogurt. But, it certainly works! Especially for those who aren't exactly fond of the bitter / sour taste known to accompany Greek Yogurt. Tho the slight amount of sour Greek Yogurt added does pair nicely with the sweetness of the Vidalia Onions.Total manual prep time will take you approximately 60 minutes if making this dish for the first time alone. Total wait time will be much longer with the brine and marinating time.Of all the dishes I make, and I make many, this is my wife's, and all her friends favorite. In fact, everyone on their birthday gets a special, "dish wish." This one is easily the most requested next to my Green Chilie Stew.Use the freshest, crispiest garden vegetables, herbs, chicken and Naan breads for best results! Tip? Go heavy on the mushrooms!All pictures and directions taken by 7 and 8 year olds! Great work kiddos! I'm SO proud! 😆

yummy

Wanted some sauce to go with my lamb and flatbread but i had none and I didn't have everything I needed to make it. This is good if you don't have all of the typical items you would use in a tzatziki sauce. I eyed the ingredients so this recipe depends on how much of an item anyone wants in the sauce.

So filling, so refreshing, so flavorful, so juicy and so very easy to make! My 6 and 7 year old students had a blast preparing and documenting these! And, devouring them as well! They went with Naan bread out of necessity but, Pita Bread works great as well!

I could eat this with a spoon! lol We put it on just about everything. Goes great with grilled chicken or on hamburgers, chicken burgers, in pitas with lettuce and tomato. Yummy on baked potatoes too. Also great dip for chips and veggies ~(o.o)~
