I could eat cucumber dip on pita triangles until I exploded. Honestly. I make this dip often and there's never any to put away.
If you're watching your diet, you can 'lighten' this recipe up by simply using non-fat yogurt & reduced fat mayo--it really won't make that much difference with all the other flavor going on in it.
While your dip is chilling, toast some pita triangles in a 325 degree oven for about 10 minutes.
Mmmm. I can taste this now...
1~1/2 cups plain yogurt
2 Tablespoons mint leaves, chopped
2 Tablespoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons fresh orange peel, grated fine
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cucumber, peeled-seeded-and chopped
salt & pepper to taste
Pita bread, cut into triangles and toasted
Mix all ingredients. Cover and chill for at least one hour.
* Excellent served with toasted pita bread triangles.
