Sweet and Spicy Barbecue Sauce

Grilled Veggie Skewers

This is a really simple, basic barbeque sauce. I don't see any need to buy bottled sauce when homemade is so easy to make - and it tastes fantastic. Use as a glaze or dip for veggie burgers, chickenless nuggets, or my favorite, veggie skewers!

Ingredients:

• 1/2 C ketchup
• 1/2 C apple cider vinegar
• 1/4 C brown sugar
• 1/4 C agave nectar
• 2 T tomato paste
• 1 T chili powder
• 1 T yellow mustard
• 1 t onion powder
• 1 t garlic powder
• 1/2 t chipotle powder
• 1/2 t garlic salt
• 1/2 t coarse ground black pepper
• habanero or red pepper flakes to taste (optional)

Preparation:

1. Put all ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
2. Let the sauce simmer for 15-20 minutes.
3. Enjoy!
