Easy to make hot, tangy sauce that can be used for many recipes. I added this sauce to my nachos and it really cuts through the richness of all that cheese and provided a nice zing!
Color me surprised! I was looking for a fresh, home made taco sauce/tortilla dipping sauce that used staples I had on hand. I found it! It was so easy and tastes great. I made it as is and my family loves it! Thanks for the recipe.
