Serve this delicious yogurt-dressed vegetable combo as a salad or a mouth-cooling condiment with spicy food. We think it is terrific with highly spiced grilled chicken. The cumin adds an exotic flavor, but dill works a different, equally appealing magic. You can easily multiply this recipe to feed a crowd.

Serve this delicious yogurt-dressed vegetable combo as a salad or a mouth-cooling condiment with spicy food. We think it is terrific with highly spiced grilled chicken. The cumin adds an exotic flavor, but dill works a different, equally appealing magic. You can easily multiply this recipe to feed a crowd.
