Savory Sauce 

• Cooking Time: 20 minutes
• Servings: 24
• Preparation Time: 5 minutes
• 1 (14 ounce) cans tomato sauce
• 2/3 cup water
• 1 to 2 teaspoon chili powder (to taste)

Place all ingredients in a sauce pan and stir well, simmer at a very low temperature for 15- 20 minutes.

Remove and cool.

May be kept in refrigerator for several days, but I susggest freezing half for later use unless you have having a big group of people.

I love Taco Bell mild sauce, but I really shouldn't be eating there. That said, I found this recipe which comes close to the TB version and gives me a bit of flavor for my own homemade burritos, tacos and nachos. I even love just dipping chips in this sauce and it is very low-cal on its own.
