Recipe: Jalapeño Cilantro Cream Cheese Sauce

Jalapeño cilantro cream cheese sauce is the perfect summer sauce to bring heat to hot dogs, chicken, or even corn on the cob. It’s fresh, light and packs just the right amount of heat. Buy ripe peppers and fresh cilantro. Okay, let’s get started on this recipe.

Ingredients

• 2 jalapeños
• 1 cup of cilantro
• 4oz of cream cheese
• 1 tablespoon of lime juice
• 1/4 cup of olive oil
• 2 dashes of white vinegar

First, wash and gather all of your ingredients.

Depending on your desired heat level, you can deseed the jalapeños or leave the seeds in. The first time I made this recipe I left them all in and it was just a tad too much. Next time, I think I’ll deseed one or two of the jalapeños.

Put the jalapeños in the food processor with the cilantro and blend. When it’s course mix in the cream cheese. Then add in the lime juice, oil and vinegar.

Done

Taste it and add a dash or two of salt depending on your own personal taste. Good? Well, just be sure not to eat it all just yet. You’ll want to save it for the chicken you’re making or even the turkey burgers!

That’s it, that’s all. Dish out and clean your food processor and you’re all done. Thanks for visiting and I’ll see you again soon.
