enchilada sauce??

[kellyf]

thought of a great recipe to make "carb-friendly" enchiladas-- tortillas made of egg, with meat filling and cheese and enchilada sauce spread on top. but before i go through the trouble of making these i want to make sure enchilada sauce is okay. the nutritional facts state that there are only 2 carbs per serving (1/4 cup) and the ingredients are: water, dried chiles, salt, cottonseed oil, cider vinegar, garlic powder, olive oil and calcium hydroxide. is this okay???

Looks fine to me :yes
I sometimes add ground flax (linseeds) to make something similar as a wrap.

i added cream of tartar

Try making your own enchilada sauce, I did it for the first time last week. It is easy and much healthier as you can better control what you are putting in your body.

Try this:
1/4 cup enola oil
1/4 cup New Mexico or California chili powder
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce (no sugar)
1 1/2 cups water
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion salt
salt to taste

hi kelly! you say tortillas made from eggs...do you make these yourself or buy them? are they induction friendly? tell me more please!

Forgot to add in the above recipe to cook together long enough to let it reduce down some and thicken since there is no thickening agent. You could also add some tomato paster to thicken.

for the tortillas--just mix egg and cream of tartar and pour into pan as if you were making "real" tortillas--let one side cook almost all the way through then flip and when all cooked take out of pan and let cool!!! there you go tortillas--induction friendly
