What’s the secret ingredient to my enchiladas? The sauce doesn’t come from a can! It’s so easy to make and yes, it’s good for you without funky ingredients like citric acid that’s really not good for you especially if you have arthritis, Fibro, or auto-immune.
PS. Did you know that most citric acid no longer comes from citrus? I know. I thought it did too!
Easy Enchilada Sauce
3 tablespoons gf flour of choice
2 tablespoons chili powder or Muskoka Pantry Mexican Mole Seasoning (PS It’s made with cocoa powder) it is ahh-mazing!
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground garlic powder
½ tsp ground black pepper
½ teaspoon dried oregano flakes
½ teaspoon Muskoka Pantry El Salvador Sun Sea Salt
¼ tsp cinnamon (if using MP Mexican Mole skip the cinnamon)
1 ½ cups tomato puree or tomato sauce
2 cups vegetable stock
2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions:
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat and gently sprinkle in flour and spices. Stir until the mixture is lightly browned and fragrant. This only takes a couple of minutes.
Turn down heat and add tomato sauce and stir vigorously to combine using a whisk. Add broth and continue to stir until to remove any lumps.
Bring heat back up to medium and simmer seasoned sauce for about 7-10 minutes.
If the sauce is too thick, thin it with additional stock or a bit of water. It should coat a spoon and flow smoothly.
Use this sauce in your next enchilada recipe!
