This Dairy Free Tzatziki Sauce is so flavorful, refreshing and it's even dairy free! Delicious when paired with a variety of meat, vegetables, or as a dressing.
Tzatziki sauce is actually a new discovery for me. I was researching alternative dipping sauces to ranch and came across tzatziki sauce. Then I realized how easy it was to make and sure enough, I was hooked! This dairy free tzatziki sauce doesn’t include yogurt like the traditional sauce does, instead it uses mayo. Cucumber is also a main ingredient in this tzatziki sauce that adds a refreshing flavor. Pair this tzatziki sauce with our ginger turkey meatballs and you’ll have a delicious light meal or appetizer that everyone will enjoy!
What's in dairy free tzatziki sauce?
Cucumber: The cucumber adds a refreshing flavor to this sauce! It’s also a great way to use up cucumbers in the summer.
Mayo: I use primal kitchen mayo for a Whole30 approved version.
Lemon Juice: Use fresh squeezed juice from a lemon.
White Wine Vinegar: The perfect acidic addition to this tzatziki sauce.
Dried Dill: You can use dried or fresh dill in this recipe. I usually have dried dill on hand so that’s why I prefer it over the fresh but if you have fresh, go for it!
Kosher salt and ground black pepper: feel free to adjust to your taste preference.
