Process

To make tzatziki sauce:
Use a box grater or food processor to chop or grate cucumbers. Toss the grated cucumbers with 1/2 tsp salt; in a thick napkin or cheesecloth to squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, mix garlic with remaining 1/2 tsp salt, white vinegar, and olive oil.
Add the grated cucumber to the bowl, and stir in yogurt, white vinegar, pepper, and herbs. Cover and refrigerate for 30 mins or more to thicken.
To prepare Greek bowls: Put 1/2 cup rice at the bottom of each dish or container, followed by sausage, tomatoes, and cucumbers. Top with pickled onions, feta, and olives, with pita chips on the side. Divide tzatziki into small dressing containers on the side for serving.
