Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I'm not sure why, but this recipe didn't turn out well for me. The tzatziki was too runny and didn't have much flavor.

I'm not a huge fan of garlic, so I usually omit it from this recipe. It's still delicious without it.

This recipe is a great way to get kids to eat their vegetables. My kids love the creamy, tangy flavor of the tzatziki, and they don't even realize they're eating cucumber.

I like to make this recipe with a variety of different herbs. Dill is a classic, but I also like to use mint, parsley, and oregano.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover yogurt. I always have a container of yogurt in my fridge, so this is a great way to use it up before it goes bad.

I'm not a huge fan of cucumber, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The yogurt and dill helped to balance out the flavor of the cucumber.
