Hello all! I don’t know about you, but this quarantine has had me playing a game of Chopped everyday!
Luckily, I have a kitchen basic and two sauces to add an extra pop of flavor to your dishes!
Mayonnaise is such a kitchen staple that I always have in my refrigerator. It’s the base to many of my sauces. I smear it on fish before I top them with breadcrumbs and I even use it instead of butter when I grill bread on the stove. Mmmm….I love mayo….
Evie’s Yum sauce has an Asian flair that I spoon over veggies, chicken, and seafood—I even recently drizzled this over avocado toast and it was amazing!
The Chipole Lime Sauce is great drizzled over eggs, in tacos, with dipped quesadillas, on veggies, and pretty much anything I want to add a kick to. These two sauces are pretty much always in my fridge.
If you are looking for a flavor boost to one of your dishes, try one of these out!
Happy Eating!
