Yogurt Sauce

This sauce is great on hummus sandwiches, but it is also good served with grilled chicken, or as a light salad dressing.

Ingredients

1 cup plain yogurt (regular or Greek)

1 cucumber, peeled, de-seeded, and finely chopped

*2 teaspoons dehydrated onion flakes, rehydrated in some water

1/8 teaspoon garlic powder (or more, to taste)

dash of salt and pepper

Directions

In a sealable container, combine all ingredients, except cucumber and onion, stirring to combine well. Drain the water from the onion flakes, and then fold in the onion and cucumber.

Taste for correct seasoning, then cover and refrigerate for at least one hour to allow the flavors to marry well. (Note: I like this to be fairly salty, but use caution when adding salt to this recipe, as it intensifies its flavor in cold food.)

*If you prefer to use fresh onion, oh-so-finely mince ¼- ½ of a white onion, depending on the onion strength desired.
