Recipe Introduction


Taco Bell Baja Sauce by Todd Wilbur
This is the spicy sauce that you can order on your Gordita or Chalupa at Taco Bell. You need a food processor to puree the vegetables, but don't expect to use all
the puree. I've made the measurements for the puree larger than required so that
your food processor will have something to grab onto. And, by the way, this is a
mayo-based sauce, so if you want to knock down the fat grams, use light mayonnaise
in the recipe. You won't even be able to tell the difference.


The Chalupas’ guts are pretty much the same stuff Taco Bell’s been pushing for years: beef, chicken, or steak, with iceberg lettuce and cheese (that’s the Chalupa Classic), plus salsa (the Santa Fe), cheese sauce (the Baja), or tomato and sour cream (the Supreme).


List of Ingredients




1/4 of a red bell pepper, seeded and coarsely chopped
1 large jalapeno, chopped in half
2 tablespoons diced Spanish onion
1 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon vinegar
1/4 teaspoon cracked black pepper
dash garlic powder
dash cumin

Recipe



1. Using a food processor, puree peppers and onion.
2. Mix 1 cup mayonnaise and 4 teaspoons of the vegetable puree in a medium bowl.
Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Chill for several hours to let flavors
develop.
Makes 1 cup.
