This is my new favorite pantry item (okay maybe not the old part--and I'm obviously not storing it in my pantry)
Do you have any recipes using this ingredient that you would like to share with me?
This is part of my New Year's resolution to collect some new recipes so you should feel a special need to help me out.

A bit time consuming, but so freaking delicious: http://mykitchencafe.blogspot.com/2009/08/chicken-gyros.html
My favorite isn't actually a recipe:
Plop generous amt of POY (plain old yogurt) into blender.
Add frozen berries. Don't skimp!
Our favorites are strawberries, blueberris and raspberries...
Sweeten with frozen banana and a scoop of jam.
Poor in milk to fill in the spaces and BLEND.
SMOOTHIElicious!!

Is that the label? Adorable.
Smoothies, greek tanziki, a great substitute for sour cream in recipes like chicken enchladas, sweeten with honey and granola for breakfast . . .
Janssen--I can't wait to try it.
Jenny--Breakfast tommorrow.
STM--I have been substituting it for mayo as well in tuna fish sand. and chicken salad (1 part plain yogurt and 1 part mayo--so nice). Thanks for the sour cream substitute tip.
Mmmmm. I love this recipe.
Mango Lassi Recipe

1 cup chopped mango (peeled and stone removed)
4 teaspoons sugar, to taste
A dash of ground cardamom (optional)
Method
Put mango, yogurt, milk, sugar and cardamom into a blender and blend for 2 minutes, then pour into individual glasses, and serve. Can sprinkle with a little cardamom.
The lassi can be kept refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
Makes about 2 cups.
And drink your lassi with:

Combine all ingredients except chicken. Pour sauce over chicken and refrigerate for one hour. Grill or cook chicken in frying pan. Discard marinade

1 jalapeno pepper finely chopped (I left this out.)
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons paprika

1 cup cream

Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat. Saute garlic and jalapeno for one minute. Season with cumin, paprika and salt. Stir in tomato sauce and cream. Simmer on low heat until sauce thickens, about 20 minutes. Add grilled chicken and simmer for 10 minutes. Garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve over hot rice.
