sour cream enchiladas colorado
(4 ratings)
this classic New Mexico presentation is all about the flavor of Chiles. These enchiladas with red sauce,( that's what Colorado means,) can be made of any tortillas and sauce, but they soar if you make your own tortillas or buy the best in a specialty food store. And for the very best results, purée Chiles instead of using a prepared enchilada sauce.Unknown source
