Enchilada Sauce

Posted on | October 4, 2008 | 1 Comment

Sometimes it can be difficult to find gluten-free enchilada sauce, as many of the popular brands use wheat as a thickener. It is very easy to make your own, however, so don’t let yourself be intimidated!

This is a delicious gfcf, gluten free, family-friendly recipe! It is also (if you double check ingredients!) a wheat free, dairy free, soy free, egg free, tree nut free, peanut free, fish free, shellfish free, corn free, top 8 allergen free, vegan/vegetarian, and South Beach phase 2 safe recipe.

Ingredients:

• 28oz can crushed tomatoes

• 1 1/2 cups broth or homemade stock
• 1 TBS olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
• 1/2 onion, minced or a few scallions
• a few dashes hot sauce (to taste)
• 2 pinches kosher salt
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp chili powder

Method

Saute onion & garlic in olive oil over medium heat. When they have softened, add other ingredients.

Simmer for about 30 minutes, then adjust spices to taste.

Serve over Chicken Enchiladas or Beef and Bean Enchiladas
