About MEDIUM TACO SIMMER SAUCE, MEDIUM TACO
Meijer Medium Taco Simmer Sauce is a concentrated cooking sauce built on tomato puree as the primary base, with chili powder, cascabell pepper puree, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, spices, citric acid, and natural flavor. Cascabell peppers are dried Mexican chilis with a mild to medium heat level and a distinctive nutty, slightly smoky undertone — their inclusion gives this simmer sauce a more complex, authentic flavor profile compared to standard taco sauce.
At 53 calories per 100 grams with 10.53 grams of carbohydrates, 2.63 grams of protein, zero fat, and a notable 5.3 grams of dietary fiber, this is one of the higher-fiber sauces in the Meijer condiment line. The fiber likely derives from tomato pulp and the pepper-based components. No major allergens are declared — no wheat, soy, dairy, eggs, tree nuts, peanuts, or sesame. No HFCS, artificial colors, BHA, BHT, TBHQ, or partially hydrogenated oils are used.
The simmer sauce format is designed for cooking ground meat, chicken, or beans into a taco filling rather than serving as a table condiment. Typical use involves browning protein, adding the sauce, and simmering until the sauce reduces and coats the meat. The citric acid helps maintain color and contributes mild acidity balance.
Suitable for vegan cooking applications (with plant-based protein), gluten-free, and dairy-free diets. The cascabell pepper character makes this sauce a good choice for consumers seeking more than the standard chili-powder-forward taco seasoning experience.
