Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl combine cucumber, tomato, onion, pepper, mint, and garlic. In another bowl whisk together Greek yogurt, lemon juice, lime juice, cumin, salt, black pepper. Pour over cucumber mixture and gently toss until evenly coated. Serve immediately; the longer it sits, the dressing becomes very thin
