Enchilada Sauce

This is about the equivalent of 2 cans of enchilada sauce. So if you only need one, cut it in half.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp oregano
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • tsp cinnamon
  • tsp cayenne pepper optional for heat
  • 1 15oz can tomato sauce
  • 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce optional for heat
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste if you didn't use the peppers
  • ¾ cup broth or water
  • 3 tbsp flour

Instructions

  • If you are using this in a crock pot meal, you can just mix and pour into the crock pot.
  • If not, put into a sauce pan and let it cook for 5-8 minutes. The sauce will thicken up a bit.
  • Store in a glass jar.
