Hi! Stopping by from Mom Bloggers Club. Great blog!
Have a nice day!
I bet it tastes so much better than the canned version! I'm always looking for ways to make sauces from scratch. I love making enchiladas, it's been too long since I've had them!
That looks like a great recipe. Thanks for sharing it with us at Make It Monday!
Thanks for sharing this. I have made my own before in the past and you are right – it tastes so much better than the canned version.
Great recipe! Thanks for sharing =) Come share and link up with me today!
Yum! My family are huge enchilada fans. I will definitely have to try this one vs. store bought. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
This looks so much easier than most recipes I've seen. Pinning for future reference #FoodieFridays
Once I tried homemade enchilada sauce, I never wanted canned again! Your recipe is a bit different and easier/less mess than the recipe I currently use. Will have to try it out! Thank you for sharing.
Hi Robin,
I love homemade sauces and mixes and your Enchilada Sauce looks fantastic. Hope you are having a great day and thanks so much for sharing your awesome post with Full Plate Thursday.
Come Back Soon!

I noticed for your BB wet burrito recipe you use 20 oz of enchilada sauce, so should I make extra if this for the recipe? I don’t want to throw off the enchilada sauce / gravy balance.
You shouldn’t have to throw any away, the burritos should be swimming in the enchilada/gravy sauce.
