This can be used as your own snack serve, or multiply the recipe by however many people you have coming to your house and use it as a healthy holiday platter idea! A general aim to find the healthiest tzatziki is reading the nutrition label. For saturated fat, you want to aim for <2g/100 and for sodium to aim for <400mg/100g.
