Protein-rich tzatziki with cucumber
Fresh Greek tzatziki based on lean yoghurt and quark, light and protein-rich for Phase 1.
This protein-rich tzatziki with cucumber is a fresh Greek classic in a smarter guise. By stirring a spoonful of lean quark through the yoghurt, the dip gets extra body and a full, creamy texture. The grated cucumber, garlic and dill make it a cool refreshment that lifts any dish.
For Phase 1, this tzatziki is a lifesaver: the mix of Greek yoghurt and quark delivers plenty of protein with few carbohydrates, exactly what a protein diet asks for in this phase. The protein keeps you satisfied longer and the light, fresh flavour makes it easy to stick with without feeling you're missing out. This way you eat varied whilst staying within your diet framework.
Delicious with grilled vegetables, chicken skewers or as a cool dip with raw vegetables. Also surprisingly good on a slice of smoked salmon.
