Tzatziki is quite easy to make and includes some of my favorite things like lemon, garlic and cucumbers. Having a food processor or blender comes in handy for recipes like this, but aren't completely necessary. Also known as cacık or tarator, tzatziki is a dip, soup, or sauce which is normally found in of Southeast Europe and the Middle East. This salt-free version of tzatziki can be made under 20 minutes, and contains little to no sodium.
In a food processor or blender, combine all of the ingredients.
Process until well-combined (no more than 30 seconds).
Transfer your new Tzatziki Sauce into a vessel that can be covered (such as Tupperware), stick it in the refrigerator for 2 hours. For best results, refrigerate overnight.
