Best Keto Authentic Greek Tzatziki
The best and most authentic Greek tzatziki. This Keto recipe is also gluten-free and a great addition to a mezze platter, shared with friends and family.
Can I adapt the recipe for different diets?
This recipe is naturally gluten-free. You can make it dairy-free by substituting the yogurt for a neutral plant-based option, or swap it out for avocado as seen in this recipe: https://my.carbmanager.com/daily-log?dialog=food-detail:ug:f3c66e7c34a7437c83c3e538ff2d7f2a
Hints and tips for your Keto Tzatziki:
- The more water you can squeeze out of the cucumber the better. Use your hands or muslin cloth for the best results.
- For extra presentation marks, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, and add a sprig of fresh dill and an olive to the dish before serving.
- Tzatziki will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for about 5 days; any leftovers can be enjoyed with vegetable crudités or Keto crackers.
- You can also add fresh mint instead of dill for another variation.
