Amp up your recipes using Texas Pete Sauce

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Texas Pete. All opinions are 100% mine.

I love it when I can buy something that has multiple uses, and Texas Pete Hot Sauce is just that.  Not only is it a great condiment, perfect for spicing up and getting the full flavor out of hot dogs, fries, pizza, soups, and sandwiches – just to name a few, but it’s a great ingredient to have on hand.  Did you know you could use it to amp up anything from ribs to barbecue – or even use it to make red velvet cake icing??  Now that is what I would call a multi-purpose ingredient essential in your pantry!  And the great thing is that Texas Pete offers such a variety of products that can help improve the taste of every meal.

Check out just one example of a dish you can make using a Texas Pete Hot Sauce:
