Vegan Enchilada Sauce Recipe: 2 Ways

Veganize your enchilada cravings by trying these healthy enchilada sauce recipes!

The first recipe is for red enchilada sauce which tastes amazing when paired with pinto beans, sauteed onions, and fresh guacamole. The second recipe is for green sauce, a classic which pairs perfectly with a black bean filling and a cashew cheese topping. The key to the sauce is using fresh tomatillos which are mild yet flavorful. Both recipes are wholesome, plant-based, and gluten-free! Try making this with homemade vegetable broth for an added health bonus. If you do choose store-bought broth, make sure you select low-sodium and organic.
