Cucumber Yogurt Dip (Low-Calorie)
Greek-style dip made from thick strained yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, and olive oil, lightened by using low-fat yogurt and a smaller oil pour than the classic version. Finished with fresh dill and lemon juice, it is served with raw vegetable sticks for scooping instead of oil-brushed pita.
