SIDE NOTES:

~ Chipotle mayo is a great way to add a smokey, spicy flavor to any meal. Use it any way you’d use regular mayo (on a sandwich, burger, burrito, taco, fish, chicken, as a dip for sweet potato fries or roasted potatoes, chicken salad, egg salad, tempeh salad, etc…)

~ You should be able to find chipotle powder in the spice aisle. It’s got quite a kick to it, so you may want to start off with 1/2 tsp per cup of mayo and work your way up. Using 2 tsps (as we do) yields a pretty spicy spread.
