Cream cheese is really hard on my stomach. I substituted with ranch and still a super tasty sauce! I use this recipe all the time. Thanks!
Thank you so much for sharing your recipe review, Haylee! I appreciate it! And ranch inside the sauce sounds delicious!
Great recipe, also wondering if this sauce can be frozen.
Hi Kathy! Thank you for your recipe review, I haven’t froze this sauce before, not sure how it will look after being frozen. If you try it please let me know how you liked it! Thank you!
This sauce is Amazing!!! My family loved the chimichangas. I’m making the enchiladas today!
This sauce is amazing and rivals my local favorite Mexican restaurant’s queso dip. Can any extras of this be frozen?
Great recipe, also wondering if this sauce can be frozen.
The sauce is wonderful !! It makes the chimichangas so good. My husband likes it better than the Mexican resturants.
[…] like burritos, this recipe was super fast to make. This recipe does require you to make a Mexican White Sauce, but that only takes 15 minutes and adds a delicious flavor that’s worth the extra […]
Sauce was simple to make and great in the chimichangas. I am curious if you can freeze the leftover or about other recipes to use it in.
