SUPER EASY Ranchero Enchilada Sauce (KETO Friendly)

Simmering sauce for Enchiladas and
Huevos Rancheros & more.

Ingredients;
1 15 ounce can tomato sauce (I prefer a low salt, or no salt, sauce.)
1 cup beef, chicken or vegetable broth
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried minced onion


Tomato sauce and the only "bouillon"
I use, because it has no MSG or chemicals.
Method:
Add all of the ingredients to a saucepan and still to blend.
Heat oven medium heat, until the mixture comes to a boil.
Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
Use right away, or allow to cool before transfering to a glass
jar. Store in the refrigerator for  7 to 10 days, until ready to use.
Makes about 3 cups of sauce. (Enough to make both: 4 enchiladas & 4 huevos rancheros.) 


A saved pickle jar is perfect for storing this sauce.
Nutritional info for 1/2 cup sauce:
approximately 25.7 calories ~ ,51 grams fat ~ 3.28 grams net carbs
~ 1.56 grams protein

Notes: This recipe may be doubled.

When I prepare salsa seasoned chicken, in the crockpot, 
(see recipe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmAHieLiAVA), 
strain the chicken broth & salsa liquid. I save the liquid for Ranchero 
Sauce and I add the vegetable bits to the shredded chicken.

I use this sauce to make:
