Chipotle any one??

A couple weekends ago I had a fun shopping trip into Portland with the 'girls'. And what shopping trip would be complete without some yummy food??

We totally splurged and shared an order of greesy, yummy garlic fries. Oh but that is not all - they served them with CHIPOTLE mayo . . . um my YUM that was good. I puzzled it over a bit and then determined to create my own healthier version. Here is what I bought:

1 small jar reduced fat REAL mayo (15 cals per tablespoon)
1 jar chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (found in the Mexican foods aisle)

Get out your food processor (or similar) and combine the entire contents of the mayo with 1-3 peppers. (I used three and thought it was perfect - the kids found it too spicy). I saved the rest of the jar of peppers and will have to come up with something creative for those I guess . . .

YUMMMM . . . I served this with chicken breast strips, lettuce, and shredded cheese in whole wheat wraps. Cant wait to try it on more things . . . . .

We get canola mayo because (according to Karl's research) it's healthier than reduced fat mayo. Might be something to do your own research on so you can enjoy even more of that yummy-sounding stuff! :)

Flavored mayo! Count me in. Sounds delicious. :) Course, Bryan won't eat it, but that just means more for me, right? ;)
