Each pack blends chili pepper, cumin, onion and garlic to create a balanced, zesty sauce base you can stir into tomato sauce and water.

How do I make enchilada sauce with this mix?

Preparing sauce is quick and straightforward: combine the mix with tomato sauce and water, simmer briefly, then spoon over filled tortillas before baking. The formula is designed to season evenly and reduce guesswork, so you get consistent flavor every time.

• Typical ratio: mix the 1.5 oz packet into a 15 oz can of tomato sauce plus the amount of water listed on the packet.
• Heat and stir until well combined and slightly thickened.
• Use immediately to coat tortillas or cool and refrigerate for later use.

What dishes can I make besides classic enchiladas?

This mix is versatile beyond enchiladas—try it as a quick sauce for chicken, a flavor boost for black bean tacos, or a spicy glaze for wings. Its chili and cumin notes make it a useful shortcut in many Tex‑Mex and Southwestern recipes.

• Pour over shredded chicken for enchilada-style bowls or tamale pie.
• Stir into cooked beans, rice, or taco meat for added depth.
• Use as a marinade or finishing sauce for grilled proteins and roasted vegetables.

Does this product use artificial ingredients or MSG?

McCormick Enchilada Sauce Mix is formulated without artificial flavors and contains no added MSG, aside from naturally occurring glutamates present in some ingredients. It focuses on recognizable spices to deliver authentic taste without unnecessary additives.

• No artificial flavors listed on the label.
• No added monosodium glutamate (naturally occurring glutamates may be present).
• Made using McCormick’s spice blends to ensure a consistent profile.

How much sauce does one packet yield and how should I store leftovers?

One 1.5 oz packet mixed with a standard 15 oz can of tomato sauce typically yields enough sauce for a 9x13 inch pan of enchiladas or several servings as a topping. Store any extra sauce in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 4–5 days or freeze portions for longer keeping.

• Yields a sauce amount suitable for 8–12 rolled enchiladas depending on filling size.
• Refrigerate in an airtight container up to 4–5 days.
• Freeze in meal-sized portions for 1–2 months; thaw overnight in the fridge.
