Thanks for sending this one, Beth. It's one of our family favorites, something Barb and I picked up when we lived in Iran where it's called, cleverly, “yogurt and cucumbers” (mast o khiar). It is so refreshing, great for a hot day. It goes well stuffed into pita bread, too. One of Barb's variations is to add raisins.

• ¾ cup yogurt
• 1 cucumber pealed and chopped
• 1 onion chopped small
• pinch of salt and pepper
• garlic powder to taste
• cumin to taste
• Mix together, chill and serve
