Here's a sauce that combines crisp cilantro with the smooth texture of avocado and the piquant touch of jalapeno. Perfect for drizzling over fish tacos or using as a versatile dip or dressing.
1 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
6 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
12 ounces mayonnaise
12 ounces sour cream
3 avocados, pits and skin removed
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Combine the cilantro and jalapeno in a food processor. Process until coarsely chopped. Add the mayonnaise, sour cream, avocados, and lime juice. Process until desired consistency.
Use the sauce immediately or store in a covered container in the refrigerator until ready to use. Sauce will keep for up to 2 days.
Use on fish tacos or with other fish or seafood. Also makes a good dressing or salads or as a dip.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.

I love this sauce so much that I make it frequently as a dip for tortilla chips...adjust heat with peppers to your liking. I do add some crushed garlic for the dip. It is super without it though!!
