Taco Bell Quesadillas...Almost.

 by kfr1sby
This is a recipe for quesadilla sauce that is very, very similar to Taco Bell's. I don't buy their quesadillas anymore, because well, I feel I can make something just as good at home!  The sauce is also very good as a sandwich spread. I like it with turkey and cheese.  I hope you enjoy this!  If you try it, and change it up a bit, I'd like to hear about your results, and what you did differently.

I have tonnes of quesadillas, but always just use cheddar and black pepper/chillis.  'sauce' seems like a good idea.
