Answers:
I tried different sauces but didn't find the taste I was looking for so I threw some stuff together and I was very happy with the results!.!.!.If you try it and tweak it, let me know!.!.!.

Ingredients:
6 tablespoons sour cream
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon dried dill (optional)
1 large cucumber (seeded,peeled and finely chopped, or grated)
1 pinch salt (to taste)
1 pinch pepper (to taste)

Directions:
1!. Put the cucumber into a collander and sprinkle with a little salt --
2!. Let rest for 10-15 minutes to allow extra juices to escape the cucumber --
3!. Gently squeeze the cucumber in a paper or cloth towel --
4!. Put everything a bowl and mix well (I don't rinse the cucumber) --
5!. Add salt and pepper to taste --!.
6!. Refrigerate for a couple of hours prior to using (if you have time)--
7!. A turn or two in the food processor would yield a nice smoothe sauce -- !.
8!. Good on anything, especially Gyros!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
