Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup plain Greek Yogurt nonfat
  • 1/2 cup English cucumber seeds removed, diced
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon zest

  3. Top with more fresh dill, ground black pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil.
  4. Serve cold with pita chips, naan, or fresh chopped veggies.
