Start by washing your fresh herbs (parsley, dill, and mint) thoroughly under cold running water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Finely chop the parsley, dill, and mint leaves, discarding any tough stems. Set aside.
Peel and mince the garlic clove, ensuring a fine mince to avoid any large pieces. Add the minced garlic to a medium mixing bowl.
To the mixing bowl, add the low-fat plain yogurt and stir in the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to taste.
Gradually fold in the chopped herbs into the yogurt mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture into an airtight container. Allow the yogurt to sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to enhance the infusion of herb flavors.
After chilling, serve the herb-infused yogurt as a dip with fresh vegetables, a sauce over grilled meats, a spread on sandwiches, or simply enjoy it by the spoonful!
