Add to Shopping List

Instructions

  1. Add all of the ingredients to a blender or food processor.
  2. Blend until smooth and creamy.

Notes

  • The nutritional information provided is for one ounce of sauce, which equals 2 tablespoons.
  • The sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
  • I do not recommend freezing the sauce, as the dairy will separate and the texture of the sauce will not be the same after it’s been frozen.
  • The recipe is naturally gluten free and keto-friendly.
  • To make the sauce vegan, use plant-based sour cream, or canned coconut cream, instead of the Mexican crema.
