Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, combine mayonnaise, onion, vinegar, and sugar. Season with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar, lemon juice, oil, water, Worcestershire sauce, oregano, sugar and garlic until evenly combined. Chill before serving.

Steps:

• Measure vinegar (or lemon juice) and mustard (or mayonnaise) into a 2-cup measuring cup. With a small whisk, stir in garlic, a big pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Measure oil in another cup. Slowly whisk oil into mixture, first in droplets, then in a slow, steady stream to make an emulsified vinaigrette.

Steps:

• Mix sour cream, ranch dressing, picante sauce, and chili powder in a bowl until thoroughly combined.

Steps:

• Mix together cream cheese and picante salsa together with a hand mixer until smooth.
• Chill for a few hours.
• Serve with fritos.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients and mix well. Serve chilled.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° F. Spray large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Spread carrots on sheet, then very lightly spray carrots. Roast until tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Let cool.
• In dry skillet over moderate heat, toast pine nuts, stirring constantly, until fragrant and light golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Immediately transfer to plate and let cool.
• In small bowl, toss jicama with lemon or lime juice, chile powder, and cayenne, if using.
• To serve, divide mixed baby greens among 4 salad plates and top each with 4 carrots. Mound 1/3 cup jicama atop each portion. Sprinkle each salad with 2 tablespoons pine nuts and garnish each plate with 2 endive, radicchio, or red-leaf lettuce leaves; 2 orange slices; and 2 fig halves, if using. Drizzle 1 tablespoon basil dressing over each salad and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place peppers with cut sides down onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the peppers has blackened and blistered, 5 to 8 minutes. Place blackened peppers into a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Allow peppers to steam as they cool, about 20 minutes. Remove and discard skins.
• Combine roasted peppers, canola oil, pepitas, red wine vinegar, lime juice, cotija cheese, garlic, salt, and pepper in a blender or food processor. Blend to combine, about 10 seconds. Add cilantro a little at a time and blend until smooth.
• Combine mayonnaise and water in a large bowl and whisk until smooth. Add the blended pepper mixture to the mayonnaise mixture and mix thoroughly.

Steps:

• In blender or food processor, combine yogurt, vinegar, lemon juice, chopped basil, shallots, garlic, salt, and pepper and pureé until very smooth, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stir in sliced basil and serve.

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, first pulse the tomato sauce and mayo together.
• Add the vinegar and lime juice, and pulse again.
• Add the garlic and pulse again, for a minute or two so the garlic gets liquefied into the mix.
• Add all the dry spices and pulse again, for another minute or two to really let the flavors blend.
• Leave the blender running and gradually pour in the olive oil as it mixes (don't just pour it in).
• Bottle it and let it sit in the fridge for about an hour prior to serving for the flavors to really incorporate.
• Goes quite awesome with taco salad.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients and whisk until well combined. The flavor improves if you refrigerate for a while before using.
