Baja Sauce
1 red bell pepper, seeded & coarsely chopped 4 large jalapeno peppers, halved 1/2 cup diced Spanish onion 1 cup mayonnaise 1 Tbsp. vinegar 1/4 tsp. cracked black pepper dash garlic powder dash cumin
Puree peppers and onion in food processor.
Combine mayonnaise with 4 tablespoons of the pepper puree in a medium bowl.
(The original recipe called for 4 teaspoons of pepper puree but I like it a little spicier. Remaining puree can be frozen for future use. I got enough pepper puree to make 8 batches of Baja Sauce.)
Add remaining ingredients and mix well.
Chill for several hours to let flavors blend.
I count 8.5g carbs, .9g fiber per batch.(6.5g carbs, .4g fiber when using only
4 teaspoons of pepper puree).
