Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

I used half a clove of garlic with no vinegar, and it turned out great. The milk seems unnecesary, and made the sauce too thin. I will be trying variations of this, adding jalapenos or habaneros.

Pretty good! I'd suggest adding a chopped jalapeno or serrano chile, but watch out as they are hot. It did turn out a little runny, so I'd also suggest holding off on the milk, and adding just a little bit as needed when you blend it.

I also thought this recipe tasted nothing like the taco bell recipe for lime sauce, which me and my dad both love. To me it tastes like there is way too much cilantro. Next time I make it I will only add 1/2 as much at most. All in all though its not a bad sauce, its just not the same taste as the lime sauce and not as good either. If someone else tries it with less cilantro and its good, let me know.

I love taco bell's lime sauce and when I tried this recipe, I was truly disappointed. It tasted nothing like it.
