Stuffed Grape Leaves with Tzatziki Sauce

This is a creamy, yet light sauce that is perfect for dipping stuffed grape leaves in, falafel, meatballs, etc. It also makes a really nice salad dressing. It’s super easy and can be ready in minutes.

If you’d like you can add/change some ingredients to make the sauce a little different, such as; capers, thinly sliced red onion, finely dice your cucumber instead of chopping, etc. Make it your own!

1 thinly sliced Persian cucumber
2 cups Greek Yogurt (you can substitute sour cream)
2 cloves of minced garlic

Place cucumber in colander or on paper towel to remove any excess liquid.
