Notes
Nutritional information is approximate. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Tortillas may begin to soften after one day but remain safe to eat. The sauce recipe can be doubled and stored in the fridge for use on salads, as a dip, or for other dishes. Sugar-free ketchup is recommended to avoid corn syrup sweeteners.
