Creamy Enchilada Sauce

My family loves Mexican food! We have tacos, burritos, or enchiladas every week! Most enchilada sauces are too spicy for my youngest daughter, so I make a homemade sauce that she loves! I have no idea where I got the recipe, but I have been using it for years.

Ingredients: 3 tbsp butter or ghee, 3 tbsp flour, 3 cups water or broth, 1 cup non-fat plain green yogurt, and 1 can mild diced chilies.

Directions: melt butter or ghee is sauce pan. Add flour and stir. Add water or broth and bring to a boil over low heat stirring occasionally. Once it reaches a soft boil, add Greek yogurt and chilies. Stir until well combined. Heat for one more minute and then remove from heat. Pour over enchiladas, chicken, or any other dish you like.

I like to store leftover sauce in a mason jar and use for other meals. Let me know if you try making it!
