Bolani Sauce Goes Potatoes
by sacramento, June 15, 2009 | Permalink

Recipe Idea:
With a bowl of cooled, sliced baby red potatoes and a can of garbanzo beans, I was trying to figure out what kid of potato salad to create. Surveying the fridge, I spotted the Bolani Garlic Mint Cheese spread, an Afghani yoghurt cheese with spices, mint and garlic. Perfect! Mixed it all together with a sprinkle of sea salt and the resulting potato salad was a hit. This wonderful sauce is located in the dairy section if I’ve inspired you to try this very quick and easy recipe! If you have questions about this recipe or spread, contact Lynn at the Sacramento Whole Foods Culinary School.
