Vegan Tzatziki Sauce
Vegan Tzatziki Sauce is a creation that came from a love of this Greek sauce to fit my clean, plant-based lifestyle.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup cashews, soaked
- ½ cup zucchini
- 1 cup cucumber grated with skin on
- 2 cloves garlic crushed
- ¼ cup dill
- 1 tsp dried mint
- ½ lemon juiced
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- Olive oil (optional)
- Sea Salt to taste
Instructions
- Soak the cashews for 20 m at a minimum.
- It is ok to soak for longer as well.
- Once done, drain the soak water.
- Add cashews to the blender with the zucchini.
- Also add the lemon juice, garlic, black pepper, and a little water enough to blend.
- Once thoroughly blended (for about 60 seconds in a Vitamix blender), pour the mixture into a bowl.
- Add the grated cucumber, mint, and dill.
- To serve, garnish with cucumber slices, and a slight drizzle of olive oil (this is optional, avoid if you don't use oil).
- Serve Vegan Tzatziki Sauce with my Jackfruit Kebabs or the BBQ Maple Chaat Vegetable Skewers.
- This is a recipe that can be made with my homemade coconut yogurt recipe.
- Replace the cashews and zucchini with 1 cup of coconut yogurt
