Spicy Chipotle 'Bad Hombre' Crema
The name really says is all here.
​
If God herself were to personify that creamy drizzle right there, - stuff would be one bad hombre.
​
Sexy, spicy, creamy & delicous.
​
Perfect for tortilla chips, tacos, enchiladas, flautas & salads. Ripe for fiestas, family dinners, or just some late-night 5th meal action.
​
I'll leave it up to you to find out who wore it best.
​
The Lord's work, I know. Now go forth, you glorified soul you.

Prep time: 1 Hour
Total time: 1 Hr 10 min
Makes: 15-20 servings
Ingredients:
-
1 cup raw cashews, soaked in hot water for an hour or so
-
1/2 cup plain unsweetened non-dairy milk (I like to use almond here)
-
juice of 1 lemon
-
1/4 tsp sea salt
-
1 tsp maple syrup
-
3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
-
1 Tbsp avocado oil (optional, for creaminess)
-
generous pinch smoked paprika
-
2-3 Tbsp nutritional yeast
Directions:
Soak the cashews in hot water for about an hour or so to soften.
​
After soaking, drain the cashews and toss them into a highspeed blender (like a Vitamix) with the remaining ingredients and blend until completely smooth and creamy.
​
Taste the sauce and adjust any seasonings as necessary, adding more salt for flavor, smoked paprika for smokiness, or another chipotle pepper or tsp of adobo sauce for spice.
​
Enjoy drizzled over my Spicy Lentil Tacos, Enchiladas, Taquitos, or the dish of your choosing.
Store in an airtight container or squirt bottle in the fridge and devour within 5-7 days.
