Notes

Make Ahead: I often make this as part of Sunday meal prep and enjoy it all week on salads or with chips for dipping!
Vegan Chuy's Creamy Jalapeno: Make this vegan by subbing vegan mayo, half and half, and sour cream. If you don't have all three, a combo of any plant-based milk and vegan works great.
