Prep Time 15 minutes
Course Appetizer
Cuisine Mediterranean

Equipment

  • Food Processor
  • Cheese cloth
  • large bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups Greek yogurt
  • 1 cucumber
  • 1 sprig dill
  • q clove garlic
  • 1 lemon

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl add a cheesecloth ( you can find cheesecloth in any grocery store- this is the one I used) to the bottom and grate your cucumber. Once your cucumber is shredded, wring out the excess water. Keep your shredded cucumber to the side.
  • Finely chop your dill and add it to a medium bowl.
  • Use a garlic press to press your garlic clove (if you do not have a garlic press, you can mince your garlic. If you do not have fresh garlic you can add 1 ½ tsp of garlic powder.) and add it to the same bowl with the dill.
  • Add 1 1/2 cups of greek yogurt and the wringed-out shredded cucumber to your bowl. Note: I used a fat-free Chobani yogurt to make mine low in calories, use whichever yogurt you like).
  • Zest about 2 tablespoons of lemon zest and the juice of one lemon to your bowl. Add salt to taste.
  • Stir and enjoy.
