I think it’s safe to say that I have been on a Mexican food kick lately! For one thing I made these crazy-licious Veggie Enchiladas in hopes to feed a few of us or stock up on leftover, only to realize that by the end of the day I had eaten the whole casserole ! Yep, not even a slightly exaggeration 🙂

Aw, not to mention my week-long Spice Nachos marathon! But here is the thing (this is when I try to convince you -or myself, that it was all okay) these foods are sooooo delicious, you seriously need a greater force to make you stop eating, haha.

But then again, why stop? So I decided to continue on the tasty, flavorful and picante voyage to all things Mexican food. To support my decision and make it official, I decided to make my own Enchilada Sauce because I figured, if I get the sauce down, there will be no excuses. Just playin’ safe!

So Amigos, this Enchilada sauce is incredibly eeeasssy to make, es muy sabrosa and is the perfect topping to your favorite Mexican dishes!

Additionally, the Mexican cuisine offers an array of flavors to spice up your cooking style and your family’s meals. My kids love whenever I explore the world cuisine, whether that be Brazilian, Chinese, Italian, Mexican and so on, they love tasting the different flavors and dishes which creates a great opportunity to connect and learn about each culture.

I really think you will be amazed at how easy and simple it is to make your own Enchilada Sauce. This sauce will allow you to complete your favorite Mexican dishes in a rich and tasteful way.
