Are you looking for a creamy cucumber sauce that pairs well with multiple dishes? This versatile vegan tzatziki sauce pairs amazingly with any of your favorite traditional Greek dishes, dip with veggies, or a warm fresh traditional flatbread. Incorporating coconut or cashew yogurt not only makes this recipe enjoyable but is friendly to those on a dairy-free diet. You can even try making your own coconut yogurt if you want to create a preservative-free, tasty, and fresh Tzatziki sauce.
What Yogurt Is Vegan Friendly?
Cashew yogurt is a healthy dairy-free vegan alternative that is amazing on its own and as a substitute in recipes. Vegan sour cream can also be used as an alternative. Plain soy yogurt can be used as a dairy-free vegan option paired with gyros, falafel, sandwiches, or even vegetables.
Most yogurts are known to include probiotics to help the gut stay healthy. Cashews have some unique health benefits of their own, providing a variety of vitamins and minerals. Some of those vitamins and minerals include:
- B vitamins
- Potassium
- Phosphorus
- Iron
- Fiber
- Magnesium
These vitamins and minerals, along with others, have essential roles in the functionality of the body.
