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).
