How to Make Tex Mex Mayonnaise

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup mayonnaise, 1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  2. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more cayenne pepper for extra heat, or more lime juice for extra tang.
  3. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 3 hours to allow the flavors to meld. The longer it chills, the better it tastes!
  4. Serve your Tex-Mex Mayo with your favorite dishes – tacos, burritos, burgers, sandwiches, fries, or as a dip for vegetables.
