Theyre officially on my stock-up list.

Luckily, I remembered stashing a packet ofSaucy Lips Fajita Saucefrom Dollar Tree for just this kind of night.

I love the wholesome ingredient list and the premium quality.

While the sauce benefits from a hit of salt and pepper (don’t most things?

), it provides a foundational flavor base for some pretty decent fajitas.

I sliced a pound ofchicken breastinto strips and mixed it with half of the sauce.

It was an easy fix and something I will be more intentional (and generous) about going forward.

That (plus salt and pepper) will be perfectly satisfying on a busy night!

Alternatively, I might upgrade to two packets for extra sauciness and flavor.

After several successful meals with Saucy Lips, I’ve added them to my Dollar Tree stock-up list.
