Summer is not over…yet

I know, I know summer is coming to an end.  If you go to any store you are already seeing fall and pumpkins starting to invade all the aisles.  (Although I kinda love everything pumpkin so I am ok with that part).  But in my part of the world it is still in the 90’s, feeling like to 100’s, and I am still craving light but super flavorful dishes.  This Jalapeño Lime Sauce is all that and SO MUCH MORE!

Just a little heat (unless you want more)

I know Jalapeño is in the name, but don’t worry it is not super spicy.   The trick to this sauce is that you roast the jalapeños.  Not only does this add a ton of flavor, but is also mellows out the spiciness of the pepper.  

It also helps because I removed the seeds, but if you want more heat, leave the seeds in.

Bring on the Veggies

This sauce is amazing with chips but I really, really love it on roasted veggies.  My niece and nephew love roasted veggies, but especially roasted green beans.  When they were over for dinner a few weeks ago I roasted green beans for them and then for fun I drizzled this sauce over some for the adults and it was AMAZING!!!

When I say amazing … I mean really AMAZING.  It adds just that perfect little extra something to take veggies to the next level.

You need to make this ASAP

And it is pretty too

The sauce is not only so, so good but it is pretty too.  The color is AMAZING.   I used it on green beans (you know for the kids) but I also have used it on these Quick Marinated Grilled Veggies and it was even better.
