Versatile Garlic Jalapeno Sauce: Dip, Drizzle or Spread

My friend Tracy, otherwise known as Nutrimom and author of the ebook The Stepping Stones to Food Allergies, wanted to share a favorite everyday recipe from her collection: jalapeno sauce. She uses this condiment as a dip, a spicy sandwich spread, a creamy salad topper, a flavorful way to dress up leftover chicken, and even as a sour cream alternative for things like burritos and nachos.

Tracy is a wealth of information on living with food allergies, and her ebook (more like a full-blown print book!), is her compilation of tips, recommendations, and recipes.

Unlike many food allergy books, The Stepping Stones to Food Allergies isn’t heavy on the medical or social aspects of food allergies, though Tracy does include some great shortcut information like a “Sample Food Allergy Action Plan”, “Sample Letter for Class Parents”, and “Are Food Allergies Tax Deductible?”. But it is rich in food … good gluten-free and top 8 allergen-free food. Tracy includes cooking tips, recommended brands, pantry stocking, key kitchen supplies, meal ideas, and of course, recipes.

Sample recipe titles in The Stepping Stones to Food Allergies include S’mores Pancakes, Basic Meatballs Meatloaf & Burgers, Quinoa Porridge, Spanakopita Wraps, and Frosted Apple Muffins. All are great everyday, family-friendly options. In addition to those, you can enjoy this sample jalapeno sauce recipe from Tracy …
