Tzatziki Style Dip
I had an officer team training I was holding for my honor society college students and I wanted to bring healthier dips and side dishes for them to snack on throughout the afternoon. I decided to use one of my favorites from a few years ago, originally made by Clinton Kelly. I’ve updated some of the ingredients and measurements for a smaller crowd. It is a bright, vibrant dip that is perfect to serve with your favorite raw veggies, pitas, or even chicken skewers! Enjoy! Refreshing, tangy dip to serve with your favorite vegetables and pitas!
