I cut down a wee bit on the Chile powder so it wouldn't be as hot. Got to keep the heat down for the younger bunch. The sauce was great over the enchiladas I made and the family couldn't get enough!

No more Old El Paso in a can for me! This is so easy and tastes great. You can also vary the amount of "heat" and salt, which you can't do with the canned stuff. This will be my go to sauce from now on.
