Greek Yogurt Sauce, often referred to as tzatziki, is a creamy and tangy condiment rooted in Mediterranean cuisine. Made traditionally with Greek yogurt, cucumber, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and fresh herbs like dill or mint, it boasts a refreshing and versatile flavor. The Greek yogurt serves as a protein-rich base, making it a healthier alternative to calorie-laden dressings or sauces. It also contains probiotics which support gut health and digestion. Cucumber adds hydration and essential vitamins, while the olive oil provides heart-healthy fats. Garlic, known for its immune-boosting properties, adds a bold zest to the mix. Typically low in calories, tzatziki is often enjoyed as a dip, spread, or dressing, enhancing dishes like grilled meats, roasted veggies, or pita bread. However, its fat and calorie content can vary based on the type of yogurt and oil used, so moderation is key for those monitoring intake.
