The cheap, nasty no-skill version? 🤣

[@jameswilson9977]

That’s awesome, I grew up in Idaho falls. I bet I’ve been to your families restaurant before.

[@mariagarcia-po6kl]

I am so glad you are back. Mamita, you have to keep going. Do not stop making videos. I a m so sorry that I had not been watching your videos. It does not mean I don't like them. It is because, I have been busy working to make ends meat. I take care of the Elderly. That is how I get paid. I'm a Home Health Aide. I work 7 days a week. When I have time, then I see some of my favorite videos. God Bless you Mamma. Be safe. Maria.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

God bless you.

I love that you do real Tex-Mex cooking. My best friend was Texican, I am TexCzech. I can cook Tex-Mex and she can make Kolaches.....our moms taught us both to cook. When our Grandmother's were giving the instructions, my friend would translate from Spanish to English and when my Grandmother was doing the teaching I would translate for her from Czech into English. My friend is still my best friend and we are in our 60's now. She swears she makes better Česnečka than I do. But my enchiladas are better than her's. LOL P.S. The lady across the street was Cajun. She taught us to make Gumbo, Hot water corn bread etc. The thing is, she did not have a daughter our age and she spoke very little English. We could not understand a damn thing she said but boy could she COOK. We both love cajun food to this day and can make a mean Gumbo. I love Texas....Texas is like taking a world tour on every block of the neighborhood.

[@O2life]

Mmmmm, kolaches! Always a favorite treat when we visited our Texas relatives.

[@glendagarcia6194]

What a wealth of cultures, cooking and friendship.

[@garlicgirl3149]

What fun!!

[@stargirl2710]

This is awesome! You two are blessed to have had all of this knowledge shared with you. 💜

[@Kunnie]

*Actually there's something similar in Korea. I like to look around different style food(in this time, SAUCE😁) at home. I enjoyed! Thank you😊*

[@stargirl2710]

As a child growing up in Fresno, California, my favorite enchiladas always had the cheese and onion filling. Thank you for sharing your recipes!

[@esmerlg007]

Ok I’m buying your cookbook! I’ve done a couple of your recipes and they never fail 😋

[@desktopkitty]

I'm Korean, and my husband was born and raised a Texan. We're having a sudden craving for enchiladas. I'm going to make the traditional sauce using dried ancho because that's what my local store had available. I sometimes make a Korean/Tex-Mex fusion. It's comfort food for people who like it on the spicy side.

[@xicanavida1559]

So glad you posted these! I make mine just like your Tex mex one love it ! I’ve seen so many recipes that call for tomato sauce are you kidding me hopefully people will try and realize that you don’t put tomato sauce in Tx Mex enchilada sauce !! Thanks!!

[@marialynch8456]

I am making the second gravy and use my oven to make some enchiladas and warm up our tummy’s and the house it’s brutally cold in New York. Thanks this was great like everything that you do.

[@xicanavida1559]

Do try it’s perfect it’s how we do it here in Texas 👍🏼👍🏼

[@kathybarth4863]

Thank you for these two basics. So appreciative. Simply foods that taste wonderful!!

[@KymeGracia]

Born in Texas my grandmother made the gravy style type. But we lived on the west coast for many years and also enjoy “Colorado” style sauce as well. Going to try making some today. Thank you for sharing your video.

[@O2life]

You make that traditional sauce look so easy! I'll have to try it. Cheese and onion is my favorite enchilada filling, too. Mmmmmmm

[@saltystuff8080]

Traditional is so worth the time!!

[@kimberlytia]

That gravy sauce one is LIFE. Its my absolute go-to!!!

[@Lea941]

I’m from Texas, the sauce I’m use to is the gravy style.. now I know how to duplicate it! Thanks Simply Mama ❤️

[@noelliacastillo5920]

Ever since I saw your cheese enchilada video I've been making this gravy. It's the best! We love this gravy style one. Thank you💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞

[@anitakimsey3533]

Glad you have decided to keep going. I love your channel and the food you prepare!

[@amieleavell9082]

I saw this after I eat dinner. Gusse what I made for dinner? Your enchilada from your cook book. OMG we love them!

[@Maddie9185]

I tried your abuelitas enchilada sauce from your other video and I love it. The best thing is that it’s super simple to make.

[@kandacee5233]

I’ve been making the gravy style enchilada sauce since the first video you made and myself and family love it! Unfortunately my mother in law had passed away and I she would just eyeball all her ingredients and I really never had a written recipe until I found your channel so long ago and I’m definitely going to purchase your cookbook because we love so many of your recipes. Thanks for all you do. God bless!

[@brownskn52]

Hi I love the enchilada gravy sauce no more can sauce and trying to doctor it up, this is so simple and easy and yummy....THANKS!!!

[@mcdadiii]

I made the enchilada gravy with cheese and onions filling- it knocked my and my husbands socks off.

[@jsfnv777]

Yes thank you! I can never find the canned stuff near me but now I’ll make some :)

[@damesaphira9790]

It is so easy to make and once you see how easy and good you will never buy that canned stuff again. You can taste the chemicals in the canned sauce.

[@kristicrump9983]

I have made her gravy-style enchilada sauce. It is super easy and tastes way better than any canned sauce I’ve found.

[@suzy1103]

After making a sauce recipe from another channel I knew I couldn't use it as it turned out awful! I quickly/desperately searched for an easy sauce and landed on your channel. The gravy sauce was SO EASY and delicious and saved the dinner! Thank you. It'll be my go to enchilada sauce from now on and I'm subscribing to your channel and going to binge on your videos tonight. Thank you!

[@sherry2519]

My husband was asking me to make enchiladas for dinner and I lost my recipe. This video is perfect timing. I’ll probably need to go to the Mexican grocery store for the peppers. Thank you.

[@kennethkauzlaric8948]

Thanks, that was so easy. I'm never buying enchilada sauce again.

[@jammingalways]

Glad to hear it! Love that there's only a few ingredients. :)

[@bradwedge8276]

Perfect recipe for a 10 inch snowfall! Momma just say tortilla for 5 minutes and im happy lol. Welcome back!!

[@DanielBacaMaker]

Every one of your recipes reminds me of my childhood! Buying the book right now...and DONE. You have ALL the recipes I remember!

[@DanielBacaMaker]

And it's already here! I can't wait to start using it.

[@cell14]

I made the enchilada gravy and my enchiladas came out soooooo delicious!! Husband approved! Love your recipes!

[@patriciahartless2095]

Thank's for sharing . Both kinds of your enchilada sauce . Both so simple to make . Have a great weekend .

[@lctrojan89]

I always use your 2nd sauce when I make enchiladas. We love them. You and your recipes have made me more confident in the kitchen. Thank you so much ❤️😊

[@almadinabenavides7673]

I tried a recipe I found somewhere else that is similar to your gravy sauce. OMG it called for like 3 teaspoons of comino, it was an overwhelming flavor. I am definitely trying this one. You have never let me down. Thanks Mamá A🤩🥰

[@lavernebufmack5091]

Just bought your cookbook! Been watching your channel for a while and have made many of your recipe and they are simply great! You cook just like a neighbour we had when I was young. She and my Grandmother exchanged recipes all the time! We were Italian and they were Mexican. I grew up in the best of both worlds! We still make her pork tamales every year for Christmas. Wish my Grandmother could have written down Mrs Benevidez recipes, but neither of them could read or write in English! Bless you for writing a cook book! Bet your family were from the same area of our neighbours, because you cook just like her!

[@micaelagarcia3251]

❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉I did your grandma’s recipe and joined it with re fried beans, sour cream and used homemade tortillas. It was delicious I was so surprised. Next time I’ll put 1 spoon of bouillon because I made a smaller portion because it was a tad salty but with the sour cream it made it perfect. Thank you I will be looking for more recipes. P.s My fiancé came home from work and he already like them by smelling the house when walking in.

[@redhousepress]

You are the best!! I just made your gray style sauce and it's perfection!. I added a tiny drop of liquid smoke. Wowza. so good and so easy. Thank you very much!

[@Maplecook]

Mama's back!!

[@LeahLopez39]

I’ll for sure give the other one a try!! I always buy the can enchilada sauce but I would love to try your recipe😋

[@Maplecook]

@@LeahLopez39 Thanks for saying that! Indeed, my version goes great with enchiladas, too! Cheers!

[@MariaVasquez-gj9em]

I just made the second one, which I got from another video and I’m so glad I watched your video as you made the one with guajillo also .Thats what I had in my head when looking for an enchilada sauce recipe. While it was good, it was definitely more Tex-mex style as you said. I’m glad I now know how to make both styles and not have to rely on canned 😂. Thank you

[@jaycilangehennig2059]

You are the only woman on KZbin I trust to refresh me on cooking Mexican food! ❤

[@rhansen1969]

Oh the enchiladas look so good!

[@julieromanszky2402]

My first time seeing your video and I absolutely am grateful for this video!❤️

[@shawni321]

I made the gravy style sauce. It came out great. My chile powder was nothing special, just a store brand, but it worked! I had some ancho powder but didnt use it because it tasted bitter alone. So maybe I'll experiment with that one another time...TYFS!

[@tracychavez7914]

Thank you for your video & links for the recipes! Can't wait to try.

[@brooxiemedina4164]

Just made the gravy one and let’s just say we will not be buying the store bought anymore !!!!!!! Seriously the best and super easy 😋❤️❤️❤️

[@apache-yaquibrown4060]

Give it a stir Mama, and mix it up. Thanks for always sharing. Always made with love, and appreciated.

[@crylove5545]

I’m so excited to get your cookbook totally just order on Amazon!! So excited to get.. I’ve made several of your Recipes.. my family loves them!! Thank you 🤙🏼

[@thaitexan8026]

I have made this twice. It’s crazy delicious and I’m not crazy about red enchilada. The kids finish off the platter before the adults can get a bite. It’s that good. I did have ONE BITE. Perfect to make & freeze for later meals. I use 1/2 to full chicken depending if you are making one for later. Of course Costco rotisserie chicken at $4.99 rocks plus a nice sliver of velvetta in each corn tortilla. I use Asian knorr chicken bouillon because it’s a perfect balance and not as salty as knorr Mexican style pollo de caldo.

[@EricaLoose]

Love your cooking videos! I’ve tried so many and they’re the best 🤎

[@gymnastmomma6908]

I LOVE your videos. Every time I watch you cook I lived with you. Thank you for teaching us.

[@cjlune3923]

Made the gravy enchilada sauce this evening and it was a hit! Thank you very much for sharing this recipe…I looked forward to trying the traditional sauce in the future!!

[@LessThanHandy]

I had never heard of such gravy. Definitely a must try! Thank you

[@beverlyfitzgerald7675]

Actually, the chili “gravy” style is very similar to the very popular Sonoran (frontera) enchilada sauce. It’s lip-smacking scrumptious. I made it with my homemade leftover chili purée.

[@adriangaxiola8133]

Awesome Thank God for abuelitas 😊

[@justlady5865]

Your recipes are the best!

[@jodimccleary53]

I have never made the traditional enchilada sauce- it doesn't look difficult. I will have to try it! Jodi

[@m.clarke4171]

You, ma’am, are absolutely fabulous.

[@dizziechef9502]

I freeze my enchilada sauces in quart freezer bags. Store them laying flat. Saves room in freezer. Works great.

[@irenebarraza3033]

That's how I do it!🙌🙌🤗🤗❤ Yummy for sure 👍 😋

[@juliegabaldon9101]

Those Enchiladas look Amazingly Delicious! 😋❤️🙏

[@RetroRobbin59]

Both look really good!

[@mopojo]

This is the stuff! I’m just a white girl who grew up in SoCal, but I have a deep love of Mexican and Tex-Mex food and make it often.

[@darcy5474]

This is exactly what I needed thank you so much! My daughter and I love watching your videos ❤️

[@YoMumzinnit]

This recipe is super easy to follow, I'm only 4 months old and it came out delicious, my parents love them.

[@CamilleTylerbrand]

Yummy thanks for sharing

[@Mixwell1983]

Well I was going to buy canned red sauce for shredded beef enchiladas and the store was out so Im going to make the gravy style. I usually do pork or chicken enchiladas with green sauce but found some beef chuck roast on sale and i dont make red sauced enchiladas often. Cant wait to try it.

[@lindafox7822]

I’m trying that gravy recipe soon.

[@Mac70957]

Love your channel. I make the second one and always wanted to know how to make the first one. Thank you.

[@hellenista]

Yummm...😋 Thanks for sharing! 💕

[@garlicgirl3149]

I watched every enchiladas video ( I think) and this one really helped. I am still learning Mexican food so this helped seal the understanding for variances. 😘

[@Cassanrda20]

Hey! I just wanted to say the thanks to your recipe I finally was able to make enchiladas without the tortilla breaking. They were delicious! Thank you!

[@abbyroberts4424]

I got my cook book. Made the tortillas and they turned out awesome. Love you're videos.

[@herewego1115]

Thank you

[@stokesjo82]

I made your traditional sauce and stored half in the deep freeze. It was excellent fresh and after freezing.

[@julieswahn9887]

my favorite restaurant for enchiladas is in San Antonio and it's called el bosque. they're cheese enchiladas uses both the red sauce and the gravy. it features a large circle of the gravy and then the enchiladas laid down in that and the red sauce over the enchiladas in a smaller circle. I hope that makes sense. the combination of the two is phenomenal. make a trip there just for that restaurant, please you owe it to yourself. your recipes look excellent.

[@4seasonsbbq]

I love your channel, Angelica. I watch all your videos when they pop up on my phone. Instead of water, can you use chicken or beef broth? Or will this throw off the recipe too much? Thank you, and have a great New Year.

[@Carolwarr448]

Thank You. I Brought it. 👍😊

[@emmoriecannon2872]

I made this for my family tonight and it was amazing! Thank you for the recipe!

[@kimduguid6105]

I really appreciate both versions and I've actually combined them when mine wasn't perfect. I hate canned sause and refused to make enchiladas until I found your video. As my husband says "you can't tell a white girl cooked this." he's one happy Mexican American 😆
