Note
We are Garlic lovers! There I said it. When I made this for the first time, I mostly tasted the tang of Greek yogurt. That little added garlic, salt and pepper (especially the pepper) added such a depth to the sauce. I served it with heavily seasoned mediterranean chicken and the marriage was amazing - a burst of flavor in your mouth with the smoothness and coolness of cucumber. Your family and friends will love it!
