Calories: 28kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup fat free sour cream Can sub for light sour cream, mayo, or Greek yogurt.*
- 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce From canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (found at most grocery stores near the green chilis and enchilada sauce etc. I prefer this Embasa brand but otherwise just check the nutrition facts, some are surprisingly higher in carbs.
- 1 Tbsp adobo sauce Scoop 1 Tbsp of the adobo sauce out of the jar to add to the sauce
Instructions
- Spoon 1 cup sour cream into a small food processor or blender jar.
- Add 2 chipotle peppers plus 1 Tbsp of the adobo sauce they come in (depending on how much heat you like) to the sour cream.
- Blend the ingredients together until it reaches a smooth, sauce-like consistency. Adjust the amount of peppers and adobo sauce to your preferred heat level.
- Alternative preparation: You can just do a quick fine chop of your peppers and then stir them in yourself if you hate dirtying the big appliances. I do that when I'm in a pinch and realize I'm out when I'm in the middle of building my sandwich!
Notes
- *I prefer the sour cream because I usually run out of protein a the end of a day and am not looking to add any from the greek yogurt... and I prefer the consistency. But all of them work! If you use lite sour cream because it's hard to find fat free... I would just log the lite sour cream - the addition of the peppers changes the macros so little.
- Sometimes I add a little lime juice (like Bobby Flay in his chipotle mayo) and a pinch of salt... particularly when I’m using it for tacos. But since I make so much at a time, I keep it in my fridge with just the two ingredients because I think the lime juice makes it turn bad faster.)
