If you love Greek food, you probably love tzatziki.
The tangy, creamy dip is ubiquitous in Greek cuisine, served with warm pita, on gyros, and in many other ways.
This Cucumber Feta Greek Yogurt Dip is inspired by the delicious dish. If you want to do it the real Nutritious Life way, chop up fresh veggies like red peppers and tomatoes for dipping.
