Recipe of the Week

Mango Lassi

You'll want to make a lot of this. I triple the recipe, and we always go through it. It's perfect with spicy Indian food because the yogurt helps mitigate the spice if it gets to be too much.

Ingredients

1 c. yogurt, plain

1/2 c. milk

1 1/3 c. mango, chopped (or canned or frozen)

cardamom, fresh ground if possible

sugar or honey to taste (optional)

Directions: Throw everything but the cardamom in the blender and blend until smooth. Top with cardamom before serving. You can also garnish with fresh mint leaves.

The brownish cookies are gingersnaps, and the creamy yellow ones are lemon snaps. Both yummy recipes are from “Food to Live By,” from Earthbound Farms. The triangle pastries are orange-walnut-cranberry scones, but I have no idea where that recipe comes from (they were made by my significant other).
