Chipotle Dip

At running the risk of stating the obvious... You have to like chipotle and some heat to enjoy this dip folks:@) I saw a recipe at Walmart for a Chipotle Dip that was made with hot sauce and dry onion soup mix but when I stirred it up it was so salty I just couldn't eat it, especially with potato chips. Since I individually freeze extra whole chipotles in adobo and always have them on-hand, I thought I'd throw together my own version, it didn't turn out bad! This took care of my dip craving and would probably be pretty darn good on a hamburger too.
 While maybe not super model beautiful, my dip has a little more 'character' then the inspiration one too, 
that one looked like smooth pink sour cream. I like things a little more... chunky.

Chipotle Dip
For each 1/4 C sour cream:
1 chipotle pepper with whatever sauce comes with it from a can of chipotle in adobo
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp sugar
1/8 tsp soy sauce
~Mash chipotle up well with the back of a spoon, stir in everything else. Cover and let sit in fridge for an hour.
~*If I was making a full container of sour cream (2 cups) I'd use my 3 cup food chopper.

Eat well and have a happy day:@)

    I'm with Mary, as I would love this on a burger, too. I love some heat and I'm like you in freezing the extra chipotles. My son, Mike, would love this!

    I used a chipotle pepper for the first time this weekend, Lynn- I am a professed heat wimp- and I was so proud of myself! It provided just the right tang to the sauce I was making without being too hot...I didn't know what to do with the rest of the can so now I do, freeze them! Thanks for the tip, and your dip looks like it would be great for a lot of things

    I'll bet this would taste great on a grilled chicken breast too! Love chipotle!

    Oh, yeah! This is SO much better than anything made with onion soup mix (though I've eaten my share of that dip :)).
