Ingredients

Low-fat Greek yogurt 1 cup
Cucumber 1 small

Method

Prepare the cucumber. Wash the cucumber thoroughly under cold running water to remove any dirt or residues. Pat it dry with a clean kitchen towel. Using a sharp knife, slice the cucumber into thin, even rounds about 1/8 inch thick. Set aside.
Tip: For extra crispness, you can chill the cucumber in the fridge before slicing.
Portion the Greek yogurt. Measure out 1 cup (240g) of low-fat Greek yogurt and place it into a serving bowl. Use a spoon to smooth the surface gently.
Tip: If you prefer a creamier texture, you can stir the yogurt gently before serving.
Combine and serve. Arrange the cucumber slices around or on top of the Greek yogurt in the bowl. You can enjoy it as is or add a pinch of black pepper or a few fresh herbs like dill for extra flavor.
Tip: Serve immediately for the freshest taste and best texture.

Pro tips
