To Make Quesadillas

BEST COPYCAT EVER! I bookmarked and even emailed it to a friend. This is going to be my go-to!  Heck, I think this sauce could be made into a cracker dip or even added to a sandwich. I'm typing this review while eating! 
I saw some people say it's too hot. Did they use PICKLED jalapanos? I imagine it would be much hotter with fresh. Pickled makes it just like Taco Bell. 
Good Lord this is delish.

I didn't have jalapenos, so used peperoncinis instead. Delicious. I just made another (quadrupled) batch of the sauce!!

Thank you! These were the best quesadilla’s that we’ve ever made at home. The spice level is perfect medium. I always make a recipe ‘as is’ the first time around but to be a little more healthy next time, I may swap the Mayo for Greek yogurt. Served this up with some salsa and sour cream! Totally worth making! Is it like Taco Bell’s, nope, it’s better! Give it a try!

Wow. This was spot on!   I love the heat but for me could use more. But this is a great copy but tbh WAY better.   Thanks for this recipe!

This recipe is great!! 
I added a few things to it to make it perfect for me I do like things spicy, 1/2 tsp onion powder, a touch (1/8TSP) more cayenne powder, and an additional 1/2 TBSP jalapenos. I put all ingredients in a food processor and blended for about 2 minutes (until smooth like taco bells). Tastes amazing!!!

I have to say I love Taco Bell! This quesadilla sauce is just what I needed! Thanks for a great recipe!

I always love taco bell copycat recipe and these taco bell quesadillas were no exception! What a delicious recipe!

I don't eat Taco Bell but this look FANTASTIC with all that gooey cheese!

I haven't eaten at Taco Bell in a long time (I live in the UK so it was the last time I was in the States). Wow this Quesadilla is amazing and just like the 'real thing', my kids love this too!

I have never tried this sauce at Taco Bell, but I am always looking for new fun things to add to my quesadillas. I love the ideas of this jalapeno sauce, and that it uses some of the brine!

I'm a huge fan of this sauce so I was really excited to try it! It came out just like the real thing and now I'll be making this at home instead of buying it!

Fantastic recipe that is just what I have been looking for! I really enjoy quesadillas as often as I can, not to say about making the perfect sauce for them, so really excited to try your tips and tricks now!

Each and every shot is sooo mouthwatering! I LOVE that texture and and I can only imagine enjoying these over the weekend!

This tastes just like the real thing, but better! Loved it :)

Awesome! I had a Taco Bell quesadilla for lunch and it had a great flavor so I came home and started hunting a recipe, I am so happy that I found yours! I wanted to make it for my family tonight so I ran to my kitchen and got busy,  I  just tasted it and it and it taste great. I did add a scoop of sour cream to make it go farther,  I think they are going to love it! Thanks so much!

Hi, I just made this recipe and it was soo good! I've always wanted the yummy sauce that was in the Taco Bell Quesadilla and now I do! I was wondering if I could share this recipe on my blog, as long as I link back to you! 
Thanks (:

Nailed it!  I'm afraid to estimate how many Taco Bell quesadillas I consumed during college, and I could always tell when they skimped on the sauce or didn't include it at all.  I wonder if the minced jalapeños are really necessary?  I don't remember any bits in the Taco Bell sauce, but the flavor is definitely spot on.  Thank you for the recipe.
