- 2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small garlic clove
- 1 teaspoon salt

Directions
Step 1
Wash and dry the cucumbers. Peel them if desired. Cut the cucumbers in half lengthwise, and then slice them into thin half-moon shapes.

In a large mixing bowl, add the sliced cucumbers.

Finely chop the fresh dill and mint leaves. Add them to the bowl with the cucumbers.
Step 4
In a small bowl, combine the vegan yogurt, lemon juice, and olive oil.

Peel and grate the garlic clove using a fine grater or garlic press. Add it to the yogurt mixture.
Step 6
Season the yogurt mixture with salt and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Step 7
Pour the yogurt dressing over the cucumber and herb mixture. Gently toss until the cucumbers are evenly coated with the dressing.

Refrigerate the salad for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled.
