This refreshing tzatziki comes together in just 15 minutes of hands-on time, though you'll want to let the grated cucumber sit for about 15 minutes to release its moisture—this step is key to getting the right creamy texture. After mixing everything with yogurt, garlic, and a touch of olive oil and vinegar, the salad gets even better after a few hours in the fridge, making it a perfect make-ahead option for your summer meal.
