Oh hey! Just me again, sitting here with my bowl of silky smooth chipotle tahini, pouring it all over everything.
Do you remember chipotle tahini from a few months ago? Yeah, THAT chipotle tahini.
Let’s revisit it for just a second.
It is a 5-ingredient magic trick: olive oil and tahini make that impossibly creamy base, garlic and chipotles make it taste good, and a little bit of orange juice seals the deal with a little bit of sunshiney-ness.
Put the whole gang in there:

And out comes chipotle tahini:

What you could put this on is anyone’s guess.
But I would suggest any and all of the following:
- roasted potatoes
- grilled chicken
- grilled shrimp
- green salads
- cold salads
- hardboiled eggs
- flatbread
- grain bowls
- raw vegetable dippers
- French fries just sayin
It’s slightly thick, slightly sweet, smokey, and has that rich, semi-fancy tahini flavor to make you feel all grown up about your life.
