Awesome Sauce-- Put it on EVERYTHING!!
Awesome Sauce is something we put on EVERYTHING- Chicken, Yucca Fries, Steak Lettuce Wraps…. Really, it’s good on everything. Generally speaking, I start with homemade Mayo, but in a rush I have no qualms about reaching for a jar of one of the avocado mayos on the market like Primal Kitchen or Chosen Foods version of the same. Go ahead and double the batch and toss it in a squeezy bottle to keep on hand. I PROMISE you will use it!
Ingredients:
1/3 C Mayo (see below for homemade mayo you can feel good about with your family!)
1 T Ketchup (You can make Kick Ass Ketchup from Well Fed)
1 clove pressed garlic
1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
1/4 tsp cumin
Shake of Cayenne Pepper
A few grinds of Himalayan salt
1/2 a lemon, squeezed
Super Easy… Blend it all up and put it in a squeezy bottle!
Homemade Mayo
Mayo is so easy to make! Just do it. The stuff at the store is so full of crap and mayo can actually be a really healthy part of what you eat when made properly... Can I get a hallelujah on that?!?!?
In a small glass bowl, add 1 egg yolk, 1 T Dijon Mustard, 1 T white wine vinegar, a dash of salt, and 2 T of avocado oil or extra light olive oil. I use a fork and just start whisking/whipping it quickly. It will all combine and get a bit thick. Measure out 1 cup of your oil. Add a little and whisk, add a little and whisk, etc etc. It should get thick pretty quickly. You should have to add oil at least 8-10 times to add all the oil. To finish it and round the flavor, squeeze in juice from half a lemon and stir.
