Are you ready for a homemade hot sauce recipe that will make all of your oil-free, vegan, low-sodium, whole food plant based dreams come true? Good. Meet this Nutritarian Taco Sauce recipe!
If you were to open my fridge right now you’d see my hubby’s rather impressive collection of Tabasco hot sauces. Looking like 6 little soldiers lined neatly in a row in our fridge door storage cubby, these hot sauces make my nutritarian dinners palatable for my decidedly non-nutritarian hubby.
Well, after years of this dinnertime torment I decided to get to work making a yummy hot sauce of my own.
And here it is!
Blender Hot Sauce Using Pantry Favorites
What makes this Nutritarian Hot Sauce recipe extra-glorious? It requires only 8 ingredients that just happen to be pantry staples. Combined with a key few spices in your high-speed blender you’ll make all the things taste better!
Is this a Hot Sauce or a Taco Sauce?
Let’s make it both!
I’d say this Nutritarian Hot Sauce recipe has a decidedly Mexican flavor profile, so it’s going to play quite nicely with these favorites:
- Eat to Live Mexican Salad
- Chipotle Lentil Black bean soup
How Much Can I Have?
This is only really an issue if you’re following Dr. Fuhrman’s Aggressive Weight Loss guidelines. If you fall into that camp you’ll want to be mindful of the sodium and seed content in this recipe.
While this Nutritarian Hot Sauce recipe has no oil, using too much at a meal can throw you off your Eat to Live targets. Therefore, as a general rule, I’d keep your daily hot sauce habit to less than 1/4 cup daily.
