  • 1 teaspoon Dried Dill Weed (or 1 Tablespoon Minced Fresh Dill Weed)
  • ½ teaspoons Salt, Or To Taste
  • ¼ teaspoons Freshly Ground Black Pepper, Or To Taste
  • 1 clove Minced Garlic

Preparation

Stir together all ingredients and refrigerate for an hour before serving. Stir just before serving.

Thanks mzfryz and konnijo! This is one of my favorite summer side dishes. Sometimes I just dive straight into it sans accompaniments.

I’m going to make this this weekend! I am in love with Greek yogurt – ate it for the first time about a month ago and I’m in loooovvveee! I also love dill, garlic, cucumbers…this is right up my alley! Thanks!

Holy wow! This turned out amazing! I paired this with some homemade gluten free flatbread. Thank you for sharing this recipe – it is definitely a favorite. :)

This was very good! It was a little on the tart side for me, so I added a little sugar. I’ll make it again for parties!
