Add sweetener if desired, and adjust seasonings to taste.

Tips and Variations:
Add a Crunch: Sprinkle in some sliced radishes or a handful of cherry tomatoes for extra texture and color.
Creamy Version: Stir in a dollop of fat-free Greek yogurt for a creamy cucumber dill salad (adjust points accordingly).
Meal Prep: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, though it’s best enjoyed fresh for maximum crunch.
