Ingredients:

• 1/2 large cucumber
• 1 1/2 cups of plant-based, natural yogurt of your choice (soy, almond, and coconut are good options, as long as they are not flavored)
• 1 tbsp garlic powder OR 2 crushed cloves garlic
• 1/4 cup finely chopped chives OR 2 tbsp dried chives
• 1/4 cup finely chopped dill OR 2 tbsp dried dill
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• Black pepper to taste
• Salt to taste

Instructions:

• Finely grate the cucumber with the skin on (if you do not have a grater, finely chop it). Set aside in a fine strainer to let some of the water drip down. Transfer in a clean towel and squeeze out as much moisture as you can.
• In a large bowl, add all of the ingredients and mix them together. Adjust the flavour as needed (lemon for acidity, garlic for flavour, chives for a more potent onion taste, and dill for a more herbal taste).
