Immediately after going through all my CSA goods,….drooling, jumping in excitement, running around the table a few times, smelling each item,… I got hungry.
So, what did I do but decide to cut up a bunch of those fresh vegetables and make a delicious lunch!
Luckily, I had fresh naan from trader joes and homemade tzatziki I had just put together the night before (sorry, sorry,….the cucumbers were from Vons. Don’t tell anyone!). With those two items, I was able to whip up a yummy sandwich/wrap/taco style meal.
I mixed in fresh peppers, kale, tomatoes, onion, cucumber, avocado, and a large amount of kalamata olives. YUM, YUM! I then threw some fresh ground pepper on top and it was complete!
Oh, and by the way, this was the first time I had ever made tzatziki and it was surprisingly easy!!
Here’s the basic recipe:
Tzatziki
3 cups plain yogurt
2 cucumbers (peeled and diced into small cubes/chunks)
3 garlic cloves (minced)
Juice of One Lemon
A sprinkling of dill (however much you like, to taste)
Splash of Olive Oil
salt and pepper
1. Combine the yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, dill, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix together. Stir in the diced cucumber.
2. Chill in refrigerator. Is best when marinating in fridge for a while, but if you can’t wait hours (like me!), it’s still good freshly mixed!!
Try it out! You’ll enjoy it!
