Options for traveling to Europe and re-entering the US with an expired TN visa but valid I94
score:3
You have basically answered your own question.
When you have a short trip to Mexico and return to the US, as you've stated, you are re-entered under your existing I-94 "status" under the Automatic Revalidation process.
One of the condition for Automatic Revalidation is that you have only traveled to Mexico or one of a few other close countries, but not to any other country - such as Amsterdam.
If you were to visit Amsterdam and then try and re-enter the US it is certainly possible that the US immigration staff would not realize you left Mexico and entered Amsterdam, however if they were to look at your passport closely enough they could be able to confirm that due to the entry stamp for Amsterdam. If this was to occur you would almost certainly be refused entry into the US.
You can NOT use a B1/B2 visa to re-enter the US. Doing so would invalidate your TN status and you would be entered into the US in B1/B2 status instead, which would leave you unable to work as the B1/B2 is not a work visa.

You can you use B1/B2 visa but if you enter with this visa, you will enter as a visitor. You will not be able to work in the US and must leave within the time stamped on the I-94. So if you are ready to go ahead and quit your job and just want to visit the US in the interim before returning to Mexico to apply for a new TN for your new job, this will work.
