Garbanzo Potato Salad










Garbanzo-Potato Salad Recipe

Potato Salad Recipe Ingredients
  • 2 pounds of those tiny red potatoes, quartered and cooked until soft
  • 1 can garbanzo beans (usually I would just cook them myself, but this
  • was kind of a last-minute thing)
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped fine
  • 1 bunch green onions, chopped
  • 3 carrots, grated
  • 2 large jalopeno peppers, chopped very fine
  • all the cloves from a head of garlic, chopped very fine
Potato Salad Recipe Ingredients
Now here is how the sauce was made: I sliced a half pound of mushrooms and sauteed them in 2 tbl of balsamic vinegar. As they were cooking I blended together in the cuisinart a half package of that Mori-Nu tofu, a can (drained) of artichoke hearts and a bunch of basil and oregano from the garden. Then I added this mixture to the mushrooms and let it cook for a while longer. I mixed it in with the other ingredients and then added salt and pepper to taste...enjoy the potato salad !
