McDonalds (copy cat) Picante sauce

15 OZ can tomato sauce
8 OZ water
6 OZ tomato paste
2 tomato with seeds removed (grated)
1/2 onion (grated)
4 cloves garlic (grated)
2 TBL jalapeno (minced)
2 TBL white vinegar
1 TBL sugar or 2 TBL Karo Syrup
1 TBL lime
1 tsp salt

Instructions
1. Put tomato sauce, water and tomato paste in sauce pan under medium heat.
2. Mince tomato, garlic, jalapeno, vinegar, sugar, lime, salt and onion in food processor
3. Add minced ingredients to pan and simmer 10 minutes.
4. Cool to serve.

Notes I tried adding Cayenne pepper to this and (while I am a Cayenne FANATIC) it detracted VERY MUCH from the overall flavor. This is best when prepared just as shown above.
