Ingredients:

• Various fresh vegetables, e.g. carrots, cucumbers, peppers, celery
• For the dip:

Directions:

1. Peel the vegetables (e.g. carrots), wash them thoroughly and cut them into long, thin sticks. Remove the seeds from the peppers if necessary.
2. Prepare the dip by mixing the Greek yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, and chopped fresh herbs in a bowl. Stir well until the ingredients are well combined.
3. Season the dip with salt and pepper and put it in the fridge for a while to allow the flavors to develop.
4. Arrange the vegetable sticks on a serving platter or plate. Serve the vegetable sticks with the homemade dip.

Tips:

• You can vary the vegetables as you wish. Other options include radishes, cherry tomatoes or broccoli.
• If you want the dip creamier, you can add some mayonnaise or sour cream.
• Experiment with different spices to tailor the dip to your taste. For example, you can add some paprika, cumin or chili to give it a spicy touch.
