Making My Own- Enchilada Sauce

Now that the holidays are over, it’s time to start up the Making My Own Series again! If you’re just joining us, you can see the things I’ve already made by clicking on the Making My Own category on the right hand side of the blog. When you’re on a budget, Mexican food is often the best bang for your buck. We love to make enchiladas, but I don’t know about you– paying $1.25 for a can of enchilada sauce just bugs me. I mean, if you’re in a pinch it’s not the worst amount of money you could spend, but anywhere to save money is great in my book.

I searched around for awhile and found this recipe for homemade enchilada sauce at Clean Green Simple. I actually didn’t have any tomato sauce, but had a can of tomato puree, and it still worked out great.
