Instructions
Strain the Yogurt
Place yogurt in a cheesecloth over a bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight to create thick labneh. For a quick version use very thick Greek yogurt directly.

Transfer strained yogurt to a bowl and stir in salt until combined. Taste and adjust seasoning to your familys preference.
Prepare the Vegetables
Wash and cut carrots, cucumber and bell pepper into sticks that are easy for kids to hold and dip without making a mess.
Plate and Serve
Spread labneh in a shallow bowl using the back of a spoon to create a swirl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with dried mint. Serve with veggie sticks.
