Chef's Notes


Store the Enchilada sauce in a plastic container in the fridge for up to a week.
Use for Enchiladas, as a taco sauce, in burritos, or over eggs.
The recipe yields 1 1/2 cups of sauce, which is enough for two enchilada meals.
You can use Gluten-Free flour in place of whole wheat flour for those with wheat allergies.
