Keto Tangy Nopales Verde Sauce

You would swear this is a verde tomatillo sauce, but this is far better! Tangy cactus replaces tomatoes in this recipe, keeping your carb count very low. Enjoy as a dip with keto chips or as a hot sauce over chicken or fish. Please note this recipe is a little spicy.

The original recipe here makes about 1 ½ cups sauce.
