I *heart* Chipotle.  It’s usually my Saturday afternoon ritual.  I’d never tried their vinaigrette until one of my friends recommended it recently and it’s so good!  I have no idea why I never tried it before…and yes, I eat with my burrito bowls.

I love making my own vinaigrettes for salads at home…and trying to recreate Chipotle’s was no different.  I found the perfect recipe.  It’s not exactly like the Chipotle version but it’s pretty close and I love it!

Chipotle Honey Vinaigrette Recipe: 
Adapted from Chipotle Fan

1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1/3 cup honey
2 t Grey Poupon Dijon mustard
1 1/4 t ground chipotle powder
1 t lime juice
3/4 t black pepper
3/4 t salt
1/2 t paprika
1/4 t garlic powder
1/4 t onion powder
1/4 t dried oregano
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil 

1. Combine all ingredients, except oil in blender and blend on low speed for ten seconds.

2. SLOWLY drizzle olive oil into blender on low speed.

3. Chill for at least an hour.

*note – I added a pinch of red pepper flakes to give it an extra kick! 

Enjoy!
