Description

This refreshing dip reimagines the classic flavors of Greek tzatziki, offering a creamy and vibrant alternative. Instead of the traditional yogurt base, this recipe utilizes the rich smoothness of avocado, creating a luscious texture that perfectly complements the other ingredients. Imagine the cool, crisp bite of freshly grated cucumber, its subtle sweetness mingling with the pungent aroma of garlic.

Finely chopped dill adds a bright, herbaceous note, while a splash of apple cider vinegar provides a tangy counterpoint, awakening the palate with its zesty character. The combination is a harmonious blend of flavors that dance on the tongue, leaving you feeling refreshed and invigorated. The avocado base not only contributes to the dip's creamy texture but also lends a delicate, almost buttery flavor that enhances the overall experience.

The dip is incredibly versatile and can be enjoyed in countless ways. Use it as a flavorful topping for crisp lettuce wraps, adding a burst of freshness and creamy richness. Serve it alongside a colorful array of vegetable crudités, transforming a simple snack into an elegant appetizer.

The cool, creamy dip provides a delightful contrast to the crunchy vegetables, creating a satisfying and wholesome treat. For those who prefer a dairy-inclusive option, feel free to substitute the avocado with full-fat Greek yogurt. The yogurt will provide a similar tang and creaminess, while still allowing the other flavors to shine.

Alternatively, try a 50:50 blend of Greek yogurt and cream cheese for an even richer and more decadent experience. No matter which base you choose, this dip is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. While best enjoyed fresh, this dip can be stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.

Keep in mind that the avocado may brown slightly on top over time, but this does not affect the flavor. Simply stir before serving to restore its vibrant green color.

Instructions

    1.
    Shred the cucumber using the coarse side of a cheese grater and place into a sieve over a bowl. Sprinkle it with sea salt and massage it in. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes to drain its liquid. Use your hands or the back of a wooden spoon to press out even more liquid. Discard the liquid.
    2.
    Chill the avocado in the fridge before blending in a blender or food processor. Roughly chop the dill and mince the garlic. To a large bowl, add the blended avocado, grated cucumber, dill, garlic, apple cider vinegar and olive oil.
    3.
    Thoroughly mix all the ingredients together by hand with a spoon or a whisk. It will resemble the texture of smooth guacamole. You can adjust the taste to your liking with more dill, garlic or vinegar.
    4.
    Drizzle more olive oil over the top. For extra presentation points, garnish with a fresh sprig of dill or an olive. Serve immediately or keep in the fridge before serving.
