Notes

  • Nutrition facts are an estimate based on 2 tablespoons per serving
  • Storage: Store easy quesadilla sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
  • Prep ahead: This is best prepped at least 30 minutes in advance so you can let the flavors come together.
  • Special tools: The 2-in-1 immersion blender and mini chopper that I love is perfect for this job! 
  • Serve with: If you’re mixing up something TexMex, be sure to try street corn, refried black beans, or roasted corn salsa on the side.
