Herby Cucumber Salad

Creamy and tangy, this simple side comes together in a flash. Don’t make the salad ahead–the cucumbers will release too much water.

Ingredients

1/4 cup plain low-fat yogurt
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon coarsely chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons coarsely chopped mint
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 garlic clove
5 1/2 cups thinly sliced cucumber (about 2 large)
2 1/2 cups thinly sliced red onion

How to Make It

Combine the first 11 ingredients in a food processor or a blender, and process until well blended. Combine the cucumber and onion in a large bowl. Drizzle with yogurt mixture, and toss to coat.
