      Herdez is a great brand. They make several types of salsa.
      Know how fresh salsa made from scratch tastes better after it has set several hours or overnight? That is called maceration. If you are in a rush, add a small can of Herdez Salsa Cesara... it will act as a "starter" to macerate your fresh salsa faster.

But an employee told me about a work around for it and that’s a cheesy roll up-add: beef, pico. The plus side is now it’s cheaper ordering it that way.

    Years ago, I was an assistant Mgr at a tb. So, I got to eat for free when working. I once made a giant Mexican pizza, replaced the ground beef with steak from the steak soft tacos, used the burrito tortillas, added sour cream and guac. I was on break eating and a customer walks in says I don't care what it costs I want that! So, the cashier rings it up as Mexican pizza plus and minus everything... $23 lol and I can confirm, they are crispy when fresh but go soft fast.

After they got super-cheap I started making them at home and have tried several variations with different sauces. I've never added chorizo, though, and will definitely have to try that in one of my future trials. Great job, Sam! This looks really good.

      I'm sure it's really tasty. My problem is, every time I search for a copycat for something I like from a restaurant, everybody that has one always insists on "only better." Sometimes I don't want better, I want as close as possible to what I would get at the restaurant. If I had the restaurant available where I live, I wouldn't be making it myself. The hope is always that somebody will put their effort into making it the same... but they never do.
