Ingredients
CHIPOTLE SAUCE/DRESSING:
- 1 Cup vegan mayonnaise
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 3-6 chipotle peppers (See Notes for Spicy Level!)
- 2-3 Tbsps Almond milk, unsweetened (You can use your fave plant-based milk)
- 2 Tbsps Adobo sauce (If your canned chipotle peppers are in Adobo sauce, just use the sauce from that)
- 1 tablespoon freshly-squeezed lime juice
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon dried parsley
- ½ teaspoon cilantro, fresh or dried
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (You can omit this for less spicy flavor)
Instructions
TO MAKE THE SAUCE/DRESSING:
- Add the vegan mayo, garlic, chipotle peppers, Adobo sauce, milk, lime juice, salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, parsley, red pepper flakes, and cilantro, into a high-powdered blender and blend until sauce becomes creamy.
- Add sauce/dressing to your favorite mason jar or tightly sealed container and refrigerate for 3-4 days for optimal freshness.

Notes
- SERVING SIZE: This recipes makes enough for 2 servings, however, for more or a larger batch simply double or triple the ingredients.
- CONSISTENCY (FOR A DRESSING): To make this more of a dressing for salads, etc. you can add more milk to make it more like a drizzle. I would add about ½ cup milk as a substitute for the original amount.
- HEAT LEVEL: To make this sauce/dressing more spicy, add additional chipotle peppers. For less spice, reduce the amount of peppers.
