Getting ready for Cinco de Mayo? This Homemade Enchilada Sauce, featuring Kitchen Accomplice Wicked Tasty Taco Sauce, will be perfect to help you celebrate!
I have to admit, I have always been one to just buy a can of enchilada sauce because it was easy. If you know me, you know that I love just about everything homemade. I feel that it is healthier, less preservatives, and it tastes better. But I never really even considered making homemade enchilada sauce
Ground beef was cooked, I had my tortillas ready to fill, cheese… but no enchilada sauce. It was kind-of an emergency.
So basically, out of desperation— for the need to complete my meal, I made enchilada sauce. Not only was it delicious (yes, I even shocked myself by making this one!), but it was so quick and easy, I may never buy enchilada sauce again!
