Dave's Sauce (High Protein Copycat)

Ingredients

• 1.25 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
• 0.25 cup light mayo
• 3 tbsp ketchup
• 1 tbsp honey
• 2 tsp brown sugar substitute (Truvia brand recommended)
• 1 tsp olive oil
• 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
• 1 tsp paprika
• 0.5 tsp chili powder
• 0.25 tsp garlic powder
• 0.25 tsp onion powder
• cayenne (pinch)
• black pepper (pinch)
• salt (pinch)
• water (Optional: Add 1 tbsp at a time to get your desired consistency)

Steps

1. 1

   Add all ingredients (Greek yogurt, light mayo, ketchup, honey, brown sugar substitute, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and all seasonings) to a jar.

2. 2

   Mix the ingredients together until the sauce is completely smooth.

3. 3

   Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed for your desired flavor; the author suggests going heavier on seasonings if you can still taste the yogurt base.

4. 4

   Adjust the thickness of the sauce by adding 1-2 tablespoons of water at a time until you reach your desired consistency.

5. 5

   For best results, let the sauce sit in the fridge for 15–30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

6. 6

   Stir the sauce once more before serving.

Notes

The sauce keeps in the fridge for 4-7 days. If the sauce tastes too much like yogurt, it means it hasn't been seasoned enough—simply add more of the spice blend. Serving size is approximately 4 tablespoons.
