Easy Homemade Greek Tzatziki

I have always been so entertained watching the recipes of Akis Petretzikis (@akis_petretzikis) on his YouTube channel. When I am not in Greece, he is making me miss Greece and when I am here I enjoy cooking with local produces from Crete.

Today’s recipe is a Greek Classic of course! From the original recipe, I used dried herbs and spices because I cannot find them year round back home. It was so delicious! You can find Akis’s recipe, right HERE!

Enjoy & Bon Appetit!

As always, you will find the Step-by-Step Video below the recipe.
