Delicious Low FODMAP Tzatziki

15 Minutes prep • Low FODMAP • Low Carb • Keto friendly • Serves 10 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-3

Tzatziki is a wonderfully refreshing and flavorful Greek cucumber and yogurt sauce that makes a delicious dip, spread, or sauce to complement all kinds of meat and vegetables. Because it’s so good, I had to come up with a version that was Low FODMAP. Dare I say this recipe is even better than the original? And, it’s not only easy to make, it’s low FODMAP, low starch/low carb, and Keto-friendly. It takes only minutes to prepare and it’s best made ahead of time — making it the perfect addition to any party or gathering.

Ingredients

1 cup peeled and grated cucumber

1 cup lactose-free yogurt

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon garlic-infused olive oil

1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill (or 1 teaspoon dry dill)

1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint

1 teaspoon Smoke n Sanity Essence of Garlic Salt (use code IBSGC15 for 15% discount)

Directions

(1) Prepare: Peel and grate the cucumber. Put the grated cucumber fine-mesh strainer. Sprinkle lightly with salt and let stand for about 10 minutes. Then, gently squeeze out the excess water with your hands. (You can also do this with a tea towel or paper towels if you prefer.)

(2) Blend: In a medium bowl, combine the cucumber, yogurt, lemon juice, garlic-infused olive oil, garlic salt, dill, and mint.

(3) Chill: Cover and chill until ready to use. Overnight is best for the best flavor. Stir well before serving.

(4) Serve: Serve as a sauce for any of my veggie bowls or salads, grilled meats, burgers, or a dip for veggies and crackers.

(5) Storage: Store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Stir well before serving.

Eat and enjoy every bite because you can!

Recipe note: I use Diamond Crystal Kosher salt in all my recipes because it has a wonderful flat and crisp flake that tastes delicious. It is also the least salty salt available so you can use it more liberally as a seasoning than you can table salt or sea salt. If you use another type of salt, you may need to reduce the amount so it is not over-salted.
