Yogurt with cucumbers is a refreshing dish originating from Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, often enjoyed as a side or dip. It typically combines creamy yogurt with finely chopped cucumbers, a hint of garlic, olive oil, fresh herbs like dill or mint, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Sometimes, lemon juice or vinegar is added for a tangy touch. This dish is light, hydrating, and packed with nutritional benefits. Yogurt is rich in probiotics, protein, and calcium, supporting gut health and bone strength, while cucumbers are low in calories and high in water content, promoting hydration and aiding digestion. Olive oil contributes heart-healthy fats to the mix. However, depending on the type of yogurt used, it may contain varying amounts of fat or added sugars, so opting for plain, low-fat yogurt can make it even healthier. This dish is perfect for enhancing meals without overpowering them.
