Recipe: Tzatziki Sauce

16 oz plain greek yogurt
1 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded, and diced fine
2 cloves garlic
2 tbsp fresh mint leaves, chopped
1 tbsp fresh dill weed
Juice of 1 lemon (about 2 tbsp)
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil.

Wrap diced cucumber in a paper towel or kitchen towel and gently press to drain excess liquid. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and fold togather. Allow to sit refridgerated for at least 2 hours before servering.

Know what you're serving it with? Try going all dill for fish, or all mint and substitute red wine vinegar for lemon juice with red meat. Also great on its own as a dip!
