A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

Cucumber, yogurt, and dill make a creamy dipping sauce perfect for kebabs, falafel or pita bread.
2 small cucumbers, peeled and diced
1 1/4 cup yogurt
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon dill, chopped
1 lemon, juiced
white pepper, to taste
salt, to taste
Combine yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and pepper in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate for one hour.
Blend yogurt mixture with a whip until smooth. Dry cucumbers by patting with paper towels. Add cucumbers and dill to yogurt mixture. Salt and pepper to taste. Serve with Gyros or as a dipping sauce.

This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.

I second the recommendation to use greek yogurt. You'll get a much more authentic consistency to the sauce. Flavor is outstanding.

I have been trying to find a recipe that tastes like the Mad Greek's tzatziki in Beaverton, Oregon. This is it. Definitely get the Greek yogurt for use in this recipe. I used the Greek Gods brand.

The only suggestion I would make is to use real Greek yogurt (found right next to traditional yogurts). Be careful to avoid the one made with honey.

My wife and I had my parents over for dinner and we all loved this recipe! I wasn't sure how it was going to come out since this is the first time I have made Tzatziki Sauce. My parents said it reminded them of the sauce they put on Falafel when they went to Israel. YUM!!!

This recipe is wonderful! I have tried other tzatziki sauce recipes and they were nowhere near as flavorful as this. My husband and I have tried to replicate a cucumber sauce for gyros like we ate with doner kebabs in Europe, and this one is it!!
