Tzatziki and Pita Chips


Ingredients:

2 cups non-fat greek yogurt
4-6 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 cucumber grated and squeezed to remove excess juice
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2-3 tsp lemon juice
pinch of sea salt
a pinch of sugar if needed
chopped dill

Directions:

1. First, grate the cucumber and squeeze out the excess liquid. Press it very well and then let it sit while you combine the rest of the ingredients.

2. Combine all the ingredients together with a spoon and let sit at least 2 hours in the fridge before serving.

3. To make pita chips you brush pitas with olive oil and sprinkle them with sea salt. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 7-10 minutes, watching carefully so they don’t burn. You can also add any spices you like, or even rub the pita before you brush oil on it with a garlic clove that’s been cut in half.
