Notes
Cucumbers contain a good amount of fiber and water (about 95 percent).
They also contain essential vitamins like C and E, minerals, and small amounts of protein and fats.
The antioxidants, minerals, fiber, and omega-3 fatty acids in chia seeds promote heart health and support strong bones.
If you don't have plain yogurt at home, replace it with buttermilk.
One can use other fresh herbs of their choice too like basil, parsley, cilantro for garnish.
