Cucumber and yogurt salad

I had made this for lunch today, I based it on a salad we had in Syria. It is really simple to make and very refreshing on a hot sticky day, like it is today.


Cucumber and Yogurt Salad

Ingredients

17.6 oz Fage Yogurt - i prefer this one because it is nice and thick and will stand up to the water content of cucumbers
1 large cucumber - diced and leave the peel on
1/4 chopped fresh dill, remove the stems
1 bunch of green onions, diced include the green tops and the bottoms all the way to the roots - no roots of course
1 table spoon minced garlic
and salt to taste.


Directions

Mix all together and chill for about an hour. Some water from the cucumbers will rise to the top just stir it in.

Simple

Variation

Remove the dill and add 1/4 cup of fresh chopped mint, stems removed.

Enjoy cooking
