Easy Cucumber Salad with Yogurt Dressing

A Taste of the Middle East

I love simple, healthy recipes with lots of flavor - but I don’t like to hassle with a lot of steps or prep time.  This easy cucumber salad is quick, nutritious, and has a lovely exotic flavor.  It’s perfect as a side dish or a simple main course – a good choice for a Meatless Monday meal.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup plain organic yogurt
  • 2 organic cucumbers, peeled and chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 organic garlic clove, put through a garlic press
  • 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh mint
  • Pepper to taste (optional)

Directions:

Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl.  Toss thoroughly and chill in the refrigerator for one hour (chilling is optional, but I find it makes the flavors blend together very nicely).
