Green Chile Sauce

This homemade green chile sauce and I are old friends. It's a sauce I've been making for years and one I never get tired of. It's made with two kinds of peppers, isn't too spicy, and is the best sauce to elevate so many dishes. You'll skip the jarred stuff once you give it a try!
