Sometimes when I look at a picture of food from another culture other than my own, I get intimidated.

Do you ever feel like that?

I feel like, maybe they use some ingredients I’m not used to or have never heard of, and since I have no experience with those types of foods, it can be somewhat scary. I don’t know how to mix flavors I’ve never tried before. I mean, who does, really?

But the more I learn about other cultures, the more I learn their food…and I LOVE learning about other cultures. The truth is, that the more you open yourself up to learning, the more you discover you have in common with others and I think that’s really cool. Although our foods may be different, we have the same beating heart, and that’s where the recipes come from.

I invite you to join me on this journey.

If you are tired of the same old appetizers and looking for something different, this recipe is for you. Or maybe you are entertaining and need a quick and easy snack to serve.

This Tzatziki sauce is so tasty, your friends will never know how easy it is to make (unless you tell them!) It’s a fresh change from boring chips and salsa and it’s hugely impressive to just bust out something your friends have never heard of before.
