    Recipe Introduction


    "This Greek yogurt-cucumber sauce, typically served on souvlaki and gyros, also makes a delightfully tangy dip. Fresh mint and garlic give it its characteristic flavor, and you can easily adjust the amounts of both to suit your family's tastes."

    List of Ingredients




    2/3 cup peeled and finely diced cucumber
    1 cup plain yogurt, stirred until smooth
    1 small clove garlic, minced
    2 tablespoons chopped mint (about 8 to 10 sprigs)
    1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    Pepper to taste

    Recipe



    1. Combine all the ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir well.

    2. Cover with plastic wrap and chill until ready to serve. Serve with toasted pita, carrots, celery, or chicken strips.

    YIELD: Makes 1 1/2 cups.
