ROASTED RED TOMATO ENCHILADA SAUCE
This is the enchilada recipe I grew up with... easy to make & good. Hope you enjoy! When I make this sauce, I constantly check to see if it "tastes right" for the mood I am in. If I want it spicier, I add cayenne pepper or more chili powder, cumin, etc. I am happy with the consistency of the sauce, but add more chicken broth to lessen the thickness, or cornstarch or flour to make it thicker.
