from the cookbook, Vegan Burgers and Burritos by Sophia DeSantis

Smoky Tangy Cream is a delicious everything sauce you can put on salads, burgers, burritos, sandwiches, potatoes - anything! Quick and easy to make using whole food vegan ingredients, it's just one of many delicious recipes from this cookbook by Sophia DeSantis.

The guys at my house are really happy I reviewed this cookbook.  They're used to the lighter fare I often spring on them, and even enjoy it - but this book is filled with recipes right up their alley.  Hearty, indulgent (-feeling), delicious recipes. 

They're also easy recipes.  Sophia does a great job of walking the reader through, anticipating questions along the way.  At times, the ingredients lists are on the long side, but they are ingredients that aren't intimidating and come together relatively quickly and easily.

Churros anyone?  No seriously - there's a recipe for vegan churros!!!  Also, there's a whole section of dreamy sauces (which totally makes a burger or burrito, if you ask me).  And (drum roll, please):  Sides, like Smoky Seasoned Sweet Potato Fries and Crispy Zucchini Chips.  I really love this book.

Smoky Tangy Sauce Recipe

Sophia has shared a recipe with us from the book (yay!), and I love that it's very easy and versatile.  I've used this sauce on all kinds of things!  I especially like it for burgers, burritos (fancy that - Sophia knows what she's doing), and salads.  I'd love to hear how you enjoy eating it.  In the pictures, I've paired it with the Three-Bean Chili Burger from the book, and there's one shot with it on a salad of my own.  De-lish.  You can find the full recipe below.  There's also a link there if you'd like to purchase this fantastic cookbook.  The ultimate go-to for football feasts, summer BBQs, or everyday family meals.
