    Hi Ali, Fabulous recipe and now I know exactly how to say Tzatziki! Just wondering why the recipe will only last 2 days and not as long as the life of refrigerated Greek Yogurt. Is it the lemon? Does it start breaking down the yogurt? Just curious because I am looking for a healthy sauce for wraps. This one has 1 weight watcher point for 2 tablespoons and 0 points for 1 tablespoon. Just an additional comment, I have been following your recipes for several years and have cooked many of recipes. I always come back over and over for your delicious recipes and I’m never disappointed. I know I can count on your recipes! Thank you for all the hard work on this site. I am always excited to put your food on the table for my family!
