We had a fantastic meal at a restaurant in NC called Cruz. It has closed down with covid, but they had a corn sauce that they served over veggie burritos that was just to die for. Both Barb and Tori enjoyed it as much as I did, so I have been looking for a recipe to try at home. This is the closest I could find, and needed some altering to get the way I remember it being. The original recipe was from Emeril, but with the changes, now My Way.
