Nutrition & ingredients
Ingredients
½ cup- ½ cup mayo (or use sour cream, vegan mayo “Veganaise” – or make with silken tofu, see notes below)
- 1 -2 teaspoons lime juice (to taste)
- salt and pepper to taste
- ½ teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- ⅛- ¼ teaspoon ground chipotle powder – you can also use one chipotle pepper from a can (blending it with the mayo in a blender) or just stir in 1-3 teaspoons of the smoky adobo sauce from the can. Start conservatively, adding more to taste. I prefer the Adobo Sauce!
- 1/2 -1 tablespoon water, see note
