Reply to comment by Immediate-Quit4157 in [homemade] cheese enchiladas with Mexican rice and refried pinto beans by Immediate-Quit4157

Made it tonight, can definitely confirm that adding bouillon to the rice, even though I only had chicken bouillon, makes a huge difference compared to just straight broth. And your suggested recipe for enchilada sauce was a lot better than the canned stuff.

Nice!!! Yeah the powder is just so concentrated you can really bump up the flavor compared to straight broth. Glad you enjoyed! And agree, homemade sauce is the way to go when you have time. Canned is fine in a pinch but doesn’t hold a candle to scratch enchilada sauce.

It never really occurred to me how easy it is to make the sauce from scratch with ingredients that I almost always have on hand anyway. I'll definitely tweak the recipe a bit for future uses, but I don't using canned sauce in my future for a while.
