Yogurt & Cucumber Salad

Love this salad because it is super easy to make, adds a lot of flavor and nutrition, goes with a lot of dishes, or can be simply enjoyed by itself along with a hearty piece of bread!

Whenever I use cucumbers in a recipe, I prefer to use the cucumbers with the skin to benefit from nutrients in the skin such as fiber, and to reduce food waste
