Greek Cucumber Salad

This is one of those salads that is nice to make ahead of time so that you can let the flavors mingle a bit while it chills out in the fridge. The crisp and juicy cucumbers go so well with a creamy coating made slightly tangy by the Greek yogurt and lemon and the red onion provides a bit of sweet pungency and the fresh dill finishes the salad off perfectly. This salad is best served straight from the fridge while it is still cool which makes it a great way to beat the heat.
