Quick Picante Sauce image

Hot pepper sauce and a jalapeno pepper give this snappy sauce just the right amount of zip. It makes a great dip for tortilla chips or a tangy sauce for tacos and fajitas. This is always a big hit at parties and office gatherings. I even make it for my mother when she needs to bring a dip to a party. -Barbara Sellers, Shreveport, Louisiana

This sauce is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either. I've had better.

I was really disappointed with this sauce. It was way too spicy for my taste, and it didn't have much flavor.

I was really excited to try this sauce, but I was disappointed. It was way too spicy for my taste. I ended up having to add a lot of sour cream to cool it down.
