About Homemade tzatziki

Homemade Tzatziki is a creamy and refreshing dip rooted in Greek cuisine, often enjoyed as part of Mediterranean dishes. Made from strained yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and fresh dill, it delivers bold flavor with simple ingredients. Tzatziki is a nutrient-rich option, offering probiotics from yogurt that promote gut health, along with antioxidants from garlic and olive oil. The cucumber adds hydration and vitamins, while the herbs provide anti-inflammatory benefits. Low in calories and high in protein, it's a healthy alternative to many store-bought condiments or dips. However, its nutritional quality depends on the type of yogurt used—opt for Greek yogurt with minimal added sugars for the best results. Commonly served with pita, vegetable sticks, or grilled meats, Homemade Tzatziki is both wholesome and versatile, making it a staple in health-conscious Mediterranean eating.
