Easy Tzatziki Sauce Recipe
When I was a kid my mom use to make Gyros all the time! I LOVE Gryos! The warm pita, spicy lamb, and sweet tomatoes. Yum!!!But my favorite part was and still is the Tzatziki sauce. I use to load that stuff in the pita… maybe even more Tzatziki sauce than lamb. So when I saw this recipe for Avocado Tzatziki sauce I was sold!
Normally in Tzatziki sauce you would use Greek Yogurt to make it creamy. But this one uses avocado, and who doesn’t love avocado! It is a great twist on the typical Tzatziki and it is Paleo. This sauce would be perfect on a lamb burger or pita sandwich. I actually used it as a dressing for a Greek Chicken Salad, recipe to come later this week! 🙂
Hope you enjoy!
