Creamy Jalapeno Sauce

This Creamy Jalapeno Sauce is the best thing you could ever drizzle over a taco.

Jalapeno Sauce is one of the best Mexican condiment recipe you could ever have in your recipe arsenal.

When you love Mexican food like I do you probably scour the internet looking for traditional Mexican dishes with pictures of course.

We eat with our eyes first don't we? Nothing gets my taste buds going like a beautiful photo of my favorite Mexican recipes.

I favor Mexican recipes with chicken but also enjoy Mexican recipes with pork.

I made this easy Creamy Jalapeno Sauce and served it with my Instant Pot Chicken Tacos (recipe coming soon). I figured I should share a Mexican condiment to go along with all my Mexican recipes.

Well, besides all my salsa recipes.

I love homemade salsa just as much as I love Mexican recipes. I like homemade Pico de Galo but I also love a sweet fruit salsa like,  Peach Mango Salsa or Watermelon Salsa is amazing in the summer.

Another favorite Mexican condiment is homemade guacamole. Did you see my new Chunky Mango Guacamole recipe I shared last week?

Check it out and while your there be sure to enter the $1000 giveaway I am hosting.

So what is your favorite Mexican recipe? I'd love to know if you like chicken or pork tacos?

    I definitely want to try this on some tacos! Would it work with Hellmann's vegan mayo? Also, could I blend it smooth with a food processor? Thanks! 🙂

    We love Mexican food and I love mine extra spicy. So while I cannot make the whole dish spicy I love making a spicy sauce to go with it. This would be perfect for me. Yum!
