    This is the first time my husband and I tried out your recipe. and i must tell you that it turned out delicious. i am a vegetarian, so I use vegan burgers, crumbled like ground ref crumbled. and when I added this taco sauce to my veggy food, it was absolutely scrumptious. We will be using your recipe again for our homemade tacos.
