Pita Sandwich with Tzatziki Sauce

Tzatziki sauce is a Greek cucumber yogurt sauce. It’s a healthy sauce great on meats, grilled vegetables, salads and as a raw veggie dip! They make a great topper for pita sandwiches too.

Ingredients:

• 3 cups cold plain Greek yogurt (either full fat or low fat will work)
• 1/2 English (seedless) cucumber, peeled
• 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
• 2 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 2 tablespoon chopped fresh dill or 2 teaspoon dried dill
• Salt & pepper to taste

Directions:

1- Shred the cucumber with a grater. Then place the cucumber in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out the excess moisture.

2- Gently fold the cucumber, garlic, lemon juice, dill, salt and pepper into the yogurt with a spatula.

3- Taste for seasoning. Let it set in the fridge for at least an hour for the flavors meld together.

Note:  You could store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to a week.
