1/2 tsp Fresh Lime Juice
1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
1/4 tsp Onion Powder
1/8 tsp Smoked Paprika
1/8 tsp Salt
1/2–1 tsp Water (optional, to thin sauce)

Directions

Mix mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, and tomato paste in a small bowl or blender until smooth.

Notes

This creamy chipotle burrito sauce makes about ¾ cup of bold, smoky flavor perfect for burritos, tacos, bowls, wraps, sandwiches, or even as a dip.
For extra depth, swap the powder with 1–2 finely minced chipotle peppers in adobo sauce for that authentic smoky-heat kick. Adjust the spice level by adding more or less chipotle, thin with water for drizzling, or add extra lime for brightness.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 5–7 days, ready to elevate weeknight meals with a restaurant-style touch.
