Ingredients
  

  • 16 oz Light Sour Cream (1 Daisy Light Containter)
  • 2 Tbl Lime Juice or more - to your taste

  • 1-2 Tbl Chipotle in Adobo Sauce
  • 1-2 Garlic Cloves Minced

  • Here's the hard part... I mix everything in the new / already full sour cream container. It takes a smidge of patience and technique... Add everything to the sour cream container carefully. (Use only 1 Tbl of the Chipotle to begin, and see how you like that, adding in 1/2 Tbl more till you get the crema to your liking). My technique is to pull up the sour cream from the bottom using a spoon. That will allow the newly added mixture to fall into the container - and then I begin to fold and then stir. The ingredients do fit (if using the Daisy Sour Cream). Trust me ;)
    Alternately - you can dump the sour cream and the other components and stir up in a large bowl and then put it all back into the container it came in or a new container - whatever makes you happy.
  • Serve aside Mexican Crock Pot Chicken tacos , Carne Asada tacos, Burritos or serve as a dip with some chips and salsa and guac.
