Place the plain Greek yogurt in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Finely grate the cucumber, then use a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to squeeze out as much water as possible. Add the drained cucumber to the bowl with the yogurt.
Grate the carrot and add it to the bowl.
Finely chop the Kalamata olives, fresh dill, and parsley. Add them to the yogurt mixture.
Mince the garlic and stir it into the bowl along with the freshly squeezed lemon juice and olive oil.
Season the dip with salt and ground black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly until well combined.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. If short on time, it can be served immediately, but resting improves the flavor.
Serve chilled with fresh vegetable sticks, pita chips, or use as a sandwich spread.
