Enjoy the increasingly popular taste of smoked jalapeno peppers with this fabulous mix of herbs, spices, peppers and veggies! We've made this dip mix moderately hot (so that there's no need to have the fire department on call), but still warm enough that you'll definitely "feel the heat"!

You can also use this versatile dip mix in a number of other ways. To make an authentic roadhouse-style bread dipper, combine about a tablespoon of our dip mix with an ounce each of olive oil and balsamic vinegar (but red or white wine vinegar works great too). Let it mellow for about 30 minutes and use it instead of butter on your crusty, fresh bread.

Our Smokey Chipotle Pepper Dip Mix is tastes delicious in most stir-fry dishes - just sprinkle some into the wok as you are cooking (to your own personal taste) and you'll have created a wonderful new taste sensation that your family and friends will rave about! (You'll have to decide if you want to tell them what that fantastic new taste is and where you got it or if you want to keep it your "secret ingredient"!)

You can also use it as an exotic spice rub for fish, pork, beef and poultry. Simply rub our dip mix with your fingers into the meat, and let the wonderful flavors of the herbs and spices be absorbed for about 20 or 30 minutes. (Hint: the longer that you can allow the flavors to absorb into the meat, the more flavorful it will be!)

To add a new taste sensation to baked or mashed potatoes, sprinkle some of our dip mix on a dollop of sour cream and butter. You can do the same thing with a toasted or plain bagel and cream cheese - just sprinkle some of our dip mix on top of the cream cheese to make your bagel come alive with excitement!

To make a "quick and easy" marinade, combine a tablespoon of our Smokey Chipotle Pepper Dip Mix with an ounce of extra virgin olive oil. Cover your meat and veggies with the oil mixture and let them mellow for as long as possible (i.e. up to a couple of hours) before cooking or grilling. The oil will penetrate into the meat and help to tenderize and flavor it, making it even more enjoyable!

For some authentic "Mexican-style" tacos and burritos, before grilling, combine a tablespoon of our dip mix with each pound of ground beef that you're using. Grill your meat as you like it and place it with diced tomatoes, avocados, fried beans, cheese, shredded lettuce and sour cream (and whatever else you enjoy on your tacos and burritos!) on your pita or tortilla. (Hint: You may want to ensure that there are a couple of frosty beers around to help wash those spicy burgers down!)

You're really limited only by your imagination when you use our dip mixes. One of the secrets to good cooking is to use good ingredients, which is exactly what our Smokey Chipotle Pepper Dip Mix is! Ol&é!
