3 SAUCES FOR TORTILLAS CHIPS OR CRUDITES

It's been a while I haven't share any appetizer with appetizing family, I know that a mind is a wonderful place with amazing ideas, but it can be a little lazy. I was very busy with my professional life, I couldn't be very efficient to find enough time to start. :( 

Fortunately, I realized busy is an excuse I need to be productive and prioritize my to-do list.

Finally, I come up with 3 stunning sauces/dips that you can serve with tortillas chips/nachos Mexican or crudites.

This snack is very easy to make as well as impressive, this recipe requires all of the Tortillas chips of your choice to enjoy with 3 different flavors. The taste of each sauce is unique and it takes only 10 minutes to prepare this delicious plate. My absolute favorite is Greek yoghurt sauce. It is very fresh!

They are super easy and perfect for weekends and is a kid-friendly recipe, my daughter helps me a lot with this kind of recipes. In France, there is a culture of apéritif dinatoire aka dinner aperitif. They love to serve a big platter which includes types of cheese, bacon, raw veggies, charcuterie, olives with kinds of dips and condiments, and of course with a glass of red wine. :)

Let's begin with the recipe

1. GREEK YOGHURT SAUCE

Greek yoghurt sauce aka Tzatziki is made up of greek yoghurt with chunks of cucumber and some herbs.

2. PICO DE GALLO

Also known as tomato salsa or salsa Fresca. It is a classic Mexican sauce that adds a fresh flavor to just about any Mexican meal.

3. GUACAMOLE

Holy guacamole is a very healthy sauce, made up of avocados which gives you a creamy flavor and is rich in good fat.

Ingredients

You can basically treat pico de gallo, guacamole, tzatziki in the same manner. They are versatile and welcome on any of the following:
