We love making Tzatiki (prounounced more with an ah sound to the a. Try Fage Yogourt even the 0% fat is awesome real Greek yogurt imported from Greece. It is an award winning EU sustaniuable dairy. Even Trader Joe's carries it for a much better price. Be sure to drizzle with Greek or other EVOO. Serve with toasted pita bread. YUMMMMMM
