Ingredients To Make Keto Tzatziki Sauce
- Greek yogurt – Make sure you’re getting PLAIN Greek yogurt, with no sugar added.

- Salt – Kosher salt is my first pick.
- Garlic – Fresh garlic is best!
- Dill – Fresh dill adds so much flavor to this keto Tzatziki Sauce recipe.
- Lemon juice – A tiny bit of fresh lemon juice goes a long way!

- Like your easy keto Tzatziki with a bit of onion? Chop a bit of shallot into the mixture.
- If you’re using non-fat or low-fat yogurt, add a tablespoon or two of olive oil to bring up the fat content

What to Serve With Greek Tzatziki Sauce
I love Tzatziki Sauce (keto) with chicken kebabs, beef kebabs, and with my keto grilled vegetables, and I’ll even add a spoonful to my keto meal prep lunches.
Yes, it sure is! It is loaded with protein and can be a good source of fat if you use full-fat yogurt.
There are 3 net carbs in each generous 1/4 cup serving.
The longest part is draining the cucumbers, which take about 30 minutes. Then, you just mix and serve!
