Happy Homemade Red Enchilada Sauce Day!Okay that’s not an “official” holiday – but I’m voting that it should be. Anyone feel like petitioning with me?? Or, and maybe this is the better, less crazy option… we could just all agree that April 30th will forever and always be Homemade Red Enchilada Sauce Day. Yes? Good. It’s decided. And soon, we shall have Homemade Green Enchilada Sauce Day. But for today, let’s focus on the red stuff. This sauce is basically a Mexican cuisine staple – and this homemade version is now a staple in my house. It is soooo easy and quick to make, uses just a few ingredients (which are all probably sitting in your pantry this very moment), and tastes 10bazillion times better than the canned stuff. It has a little kick with just a hint of sweetness – just how red enchilada sauce should! And you can store it in the fridge for a couple of weeks so if you don’t use it all up at once, let it show up the next week in a new dish. Enchiladas, nachos, tacos, dips (got a real good one coming your way!), salsas…. the possibilities are endless with this sauce!
