- Make sure to use high-quality spices for the best flavor.
- Feel free to add any other veggies you like to the mix, such as mushrooms or cherry tomatoes.
- To make the vegan tzatziki sauce, combine 1 cup of vegan yogurt, 1/2 cup chopped cucumber, 1 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tbsp minced garlic, 1 tbsp chopped fresh dill, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix well and refrigerate for at least an hour before serving.
- Leftover veggies can be stored in the fridge for a few days and used in salads, wraps, or as a side dish.
