Ingredients
  

1 large cucumber, peeled and finely diced

1 cup Greek yogurt (or sour cream)

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped (or 1 tablespoon dried dill)

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 clove garlic, minced

Salt and black pepper to taste

Optional: 1 tablespoon olive oil for drizzling

Optional: Fresh dill for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cucumber: Start by peeling the cucumber and finely dicing it. If you prefer a less watery dip, sprinkle the diced cucumber with a pinch of salt and let it sit for 10 minutes. Then, drain any excess moisture.

    Mix the Base: In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and softened cream cheese. Use a hand mixer or a whisk to blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

      Add Flavor: Stir in the chopped dill, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to incorporate all the ingredients evenly, adjusting the seasoning as needed.

        Incorporate Cucumber: Gently fold the prepared cucumber into the creamy mixture until fully combined.

          Chill: Cover the dip and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. This will enhance the taste and create a refreshing experience.

            Serve: When ready to serve, you can drizzle a little olive oil on top for extra richness. Garnish with additional fresh dill if desired. Serve with pita chips, veggie sticks, or crackers for dipping.
