What Is Tzatziki Sauce Anyway?
Tzatziki is a traditional Greek dip made with cucumber, Greek Yogurt, dill, garlic, and lemon juice or vinegar. I make a killer vegan tzatziki which we love to eat on our homestead.
I love adding a dollop or tzatziki on pitas, shawarmas, or just as a dip for veggies. Whether you use a yogurt-based tzatziki or a dairy-free version like this one, it tastes AMAZING in a grilled cheese! It adds a layer of creamy garlicky goodness… you can’t go wrong with a tzatziki grilled cheese.
What’s In This Grilled Cheese with Tzatziki Sauce?
- Olive Oil: I like to use this fruity olive oil which has a fantastic flavor and deep color- it’s really inexpensive online here, so I keep a few liters stocked up in my pantry.
- Bread – I like to use thick crusty bread for my grilled cheese.
- Spinach or any greens of choice
- 2 slices of cheese: use your melty favorite.
- Tzatziki Sauce: My vegan tzatziki recipe is here!
How Do I Make Creamy Garlic Grilled Cheese?
- Brush one side of bread with olive oil. Place it oil-side down on a plate. Add the sauteed kale, 2 slices of cheese, and spread a thin layer of the tzatziki sauce on top of the cheese. Place the other side of bread on top, and brush the top side with olive oil.
- Press in a panini press for 5-10 minutes until bread is toasted golden brown, and cheese is warm and melty in the middle. Slice, mangia, and enjoy!
