Ingredients

11 servings
  • 240 g Greek Yogurt (Nonfat)

    Plain Greek yogurt — nonfat (0%) or low-fat (2%). Not regular yogurt.

  • 30 g Mayonnaise, Light
  • 20 g Lime Juice, Fresh
  • 25 g JalapeñO Peppers, Pickled, Canned, Drained
  • 5 g Cilantro, Fresh
  • 5 g Garlic Blend, Seasoning
  • 2 g Cumin, Ground
  • 10 g Water

Instructions

  1. 1Whisk all ingredients together until smooth — or blend briefly for a brighter green color and more uniform texture. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes before serving. Keeps up to 7 days in a sealed jar (fresh herb sauces fade faster). Stir before each use. Makes approx. 11 servings (2 tbsp each).

Notes

Built on the Greek Yogurt Sauce Base. Use on tacos, burritos, eggs, grilled chicken, or as a veggie dip. Pickled jalapeños give consistent heat without the variability of fresh; use fresh jalapeño for more brightness. Blending makes this greener and more vibrant — whisking keeps it chunkier.
