I'm going to try. It looks like the cilantro lime sauce Costco's been selling.

    I’ve never had the Costco one, but coincidentally I was looking at that sauce before finding this recipe. I hope you like it! At the least, it should provide a base to work with for any adjustments. For me, the right consistency was the priority. I didn’t want a smooth thick creamy sauce (like ranch) lol

    I'm kinda wanting to sub avocado and Greek yogurt for some of that sour cream as a healthy upgrade, but of course sometimes such substitutions turn out disastrously. 😅

    Anyway, the original sounds great. Too bad my acid-sensitive stomach can barely handle lime, anymore, maldita sea!
