(Plus, sun dried tomatoes are even healthier than fresh ones). It's also nice when I buy a product that say's "California grown" - from a local company. CA Sun Dry tomato halves are my favorite of their products. I don't even rehydrate them with warm water, as the packaging suggests. Sometimes I cook with them, sometimes I just eat them out of the bag. They fresh-tasting, seem to last forever, and have tremendous tomato flavor. The package of sun dried tomatoes has a recipe on back, but you can also call the company directly for more recipes. [(800) 995-7753] The company employees will personally take your call and you can even leave a message after hours. That's so awesome. I generally look up recipes online if I'm thinking of cooking something new, but being able to call a company that distributes sun dried tomatoes, for a sun dried tomato recipe, just seems smarter! I buy my packages at local Lucky's Supermarkets but hopefully CA Sun Dry Foods is carried through a wider variety of grocery stores. Eat their healthy product, and then call the nice employees and tell them how much you like it. It's fun to give compliments! Especially when they're deserved! Thanks for the yummy, healthy snack food!

As you place your order, you get stuffed with more varieties of bolani and spreads that slide you into more add-ons and combination deals. Before you know it, you've blown $20 on bolani! I'd call it unethical if their food wasn't so darn tasty!!! Basic Bolani: Each bolani is a half moon of extremely thin dough engulfing a thin layer of filling. The samples are handed out cold and soft. When I buy a bolani, I prefer to put it through some time in the oven or toaster oven to achieve a slight crisp. Spinach Bolani: The spinach is bland by itself, but becomes magical when married with the outside dough. I guess I'll call it the "spanakopita" effect. Lentil Bolani: First time I had it the filling was too dry, but recently that changed. There are more lentils now. An extremely hardy bolani! Potato Bolani: I appreciate the potato as it is the world's favorite tuber. However, I found the filling bland and devoid of spices compared to other potato filled bread like Indian aloo paratha. I suppose a healthy dose of spicy topping solves that issue though. Pumpkin Bolani: I really couldn't get into this one. It wasn't sweet like a pumpkin pie or anything, but still not a savory enough filling for my tastes. Garlic Mint Cheese: This would make a stale pita taste awesome so it is really dangerous when paired with a great bolani! It's not really cheese, but more of a thick yogurt sauce that is very heavy on the garlic. It's similar to tzatziki minus the dill and cucumber. Cilantro Pesto: It was like a thicker and less potent version of the green chutney found at Indian restaurants. I'm a fan of cilantro, but still found too much of this put me on overload. Best to use sparingly. Sun-dried Tomato Pesto: I'm not an expert on Afghani food, but somehow I suspect this is not terribly authentic. It is nice though, similar to an Italian style sun-dried tomato spread. Sweet & Sour Jalapeño Jelly: I couldn't help think that this was a less spicy Thai chili sauce. It may be good for egg rolls, but I'm not a fan of it on my bolani.

The freshest organic produce at reasonable prices is there. The quality of everything I've purchased from cilantro and dill to root vegetables, from crunchy cucumbers to the freshest beans and snap peas has been outstanding. The eggs are always fresh (I return my empty carton every week!) and taste great. I often base my weekly menus on what's available at the Phan's. The woman who runs the stand always has a smile on her face and greets regulars and newbies alike in a friendly way. Through November, they also operate the stand on Sundays. Don't pass up a chance to buy the best organic products at the Civic Center farmers' market. If you are in a hurry, this is the only stand you have to shop at!
