9 steps

A simple recipe to cook 3 ways! Keto, freezable, and yummy! Heads up I think that mild sauce at Taco Bell is spicy... and this was not spicy. It has great flavors. If you are worried at all about spicyness though, remove the green chilies, and for the Salsa Verde make sure you get MILD and at about 10% - 20 % of water.
