Trader Joe’s has no shortage of tasty sauces, and fans are currently raving over the grocery chain’s Guajillo Salsa. Some shoppers are describing it to be an incredibly “flavorful” condiment as it seems to be becoming a customer favorite.

Trader Joe’s ‘Tasty’ Guajillo Salsa: Fan Reactions on Reddit
In a post titled, “Amazing level of flavor,” one Redditor (FormicaDinette33) added a photo of a jar of Trader Joe’s Guajillo Salsa and captioned it: “This salsa has an amazing amount of flavor. Not hot as much as smoky and flavorful!!”
Another TJ’s fan replied: “This is my new favorite! I made a sort of breakfast pizza with this as the sauce, plus cheese and eggs, and topped with avocado and cilantro – so good!” Someone else revealed how they use the salsa: “I use it in mexican style dishes! i make carne en salsa roja (similar to a beef stew) and i’ve used it for chilaquiles too!”
The salsa, according to the brand, is made with "guajillo purée, red chili flakes, and garlic," as well as "chipotle pepper powder." Customers can pick up a 12 oz jar at their local store for $2.99 each.
While some commenters shared that they love using the salsa as a dip for chips, others provided more creative ways to cook with it. "I mix this into eggs and scramble together, add to pan with some black beans and crushed tortilla chips if I have them," one wrote. They continued: "Once cooked, top with shredded cheddar and the Jalapeño sauce. SO good."
One other Trader Joe's Guajillo Salsa fan noted that the product makes an "EXCELLENT marinade for chicken tacos in the crockpot." (Sounds like this is another Trader Joe's food that is worth a try!)
