“Spice Up Your Life” Hot Sauce
If you're anything like me, then you're addicted to hot sauce too. Unfortunately, most store-bought hot sauce has preservative and sugar in it! Which is why I've got creative making my own instead.
This is just one of many super simple recipes to spice up your salads, use as a dip, or anything else that might need a little extra fire.
Ingredients
Red Chillies
Tomato
Lemon or apple cider vinegar
Garlic
Pine nuts
Fresh cilantro
Olive oil
Sea salt
Instructions
Serving size made about 3 full cups of sauce
1. Add 5 tomatoes, 3 red chillies, and 1/2 of a juiced lemon to blender. Make sure to cut the tail off of the chillies first.
2. Include about 1 C of pine nuts. If you like creamier sauce, or want a heartier nutrition value- then add an extra cup.
3. Put in 2 large cloves of garlic.
4. Spice with sea salt and cilantro to your liking.
5. Include about 2 tablespoons of olive oil. If you want additional healthy fats, or just like a runnier mixture- then add more. Option to add a dash of filtered water, as well.
6. Blend to your liking and enjoy!
