Tzatziki sauce:
One of my favorite foods to eat is Mediterranean food. But since I don’t really have any good restaurants near me, I figured lets just make it all at home. And you all already know how I feel about homemade versus take out. Because nothing beats fresh, homemade food, with 100% real ingredients.
Meal Prep:
This is a staple I like to meal prep on Sunday along with other goods to build our own Mediterranean bowls at home.
For the Tzatziki sauce you will need:
- Soaked cashews
- Fresh Mint
- Fresh Parsley
- Dill
- Red Wine Vinegar
- Red Onion
- Garlic
- Persian cucumbers
- Salt + pepper
How to prepare:
I first soak more cashews with hot water for about 30 minutes. And then drain and rinse the cashews. Then I add everything to my food processor or high powered blender and pulse for 10-15 seconds until you get a creamy consistency.
Adjust flavor if needed:
I like to taste test mine as I go! And add any additional flavor to make it 100%. But keep in mind, if the consistency is too thick for your liking, just add more red wine vinegar or filtered water. But I would suggest you add 1 tbsp at a time because you don’t want to end up with a super watery sauce.
How to store and use it:
I like to store my leftovers in a mason jar in the refrigerator. And this sauce goes really well with my loaded Mediterranean bowls with lamb meatballs, turmeric cauliflower “hummus,” cauliflower rice, cucumber salad, and olives.
