Dairy-Free Tzatziki

Dairy-Free Tzatziki

Traditional tzatziki relies on Greek yogurt, but this dairy-free version uses unsweetened coconut yogurt for the same tangy, cool creaminess. Perfect alongside grilled meats or as a vegetable dip.

Ingredients

• 1 cup unsweetened coconut yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt of choice)
• 1 medium English cucumber
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

1. Grate the cucumber on the coarse side of a box grater. Squeeze out excess water using a clean kitchen towel.
2. In a bowl, combine the coconut yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, dill, salt, and pepper.
3. Stir until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning.
4. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let flavors meld.

Serve with warm pita, grilled vegetables, falafel, or as a sauce for wraps. Keeps refrigerated for up to 4 days.
