Cucumber Salad with Yogurt Dressing is a refreshing dish rooted in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine. It features crisp cucumbers, often diced or thinly sliced, tossed in a creamy dressing made from yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, and fresh herbs like dill or mint. Sometimes olive oil is added for extra richness. This salad is light yet satisfying, offering a hydrating and nutrient-packed option. Cucumbers are low in calories and rich in water content, making them excellent for hydration, while yogurt provides probiotics that support gut health and calcium for strong bones. The herb-infused dressing enhances flavor without relying on heavy ingredients. However, be mindful of added salt and full-fat yogurt if you're watching your sodium or fat intake. Perfect as a side dish or snack, this salad combines simplicity and nourishment in a delicious blend of textures and tangy flavors.
