Easiest ever Tzatziki

My easiest ever tzatziki, because chip and dip doesn't need to be hard.

Sometimes you want something easy, quick and low effort. Be it for a snack, maybe you've decided to bring something to a party or maybe you're hosting yourself.

Regardless, my easy Tzatziki is a fresh and simple dip, perfect with some pitta to start off a meal or as a delicious topper for lamb burgers, gyros or kebabs. A delicious way to transport you back to lazy holidays in the med, with chip, dip and a cold beer.

I always get asked for this recipe, and it really is so simple..
