I was desperate looking for a quick yummy sauce for a last minute box of taquitos I found on sale. I had mango salsa and that is what I used. So easy to put together and so good! I love smoked chipotle Tabasco sauce. I didn’t have but I will get for the next time. Thank you so much!! Quick and easy, so good. Five stars for me.Reply
