Yield: 4 servings

2 mini-Persian cucumbers, chopped into small pieces

2 tsp sea salt, divided

1 cup Greek yogurt (any fat percentage)

1 Tbsp lemon juice

1 Tbsp finely chopped fresh dill

Sprinkle chopped cucumbers with one teaspoon of salt and let them rest in a colander for 10 minutes to draw out some moisture. Pat dry with a paper towel.

Combine the cucumbers, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, dill and remaining salt and stir until well incorporated. Serve over vegetables or meats as a dressing or dip.
