Enchilada Sauce Recipe
There is no substitute for homemade enchilada sauce. My mom and I concocted it one day, and boy, are we glad we did! Goes great with beef or chicken enchiladas.

Hi Jen, I like this sauce! Easy to make and the flavors are spot on for Enchilads.. Good Job... Jim


Sounds good. Nice that it is original. JJ


They say an Enchilada is only as good as it's sauce. Your recipe would catapult even the basic Enchilada to record breaking heights. Two shots of Tequila one for the recipe and one for the cook
