Americans typically just lump them all together as "chilies"... to the Mexican, they're elevated to the respectful first-name-basis of "Ancho", and "Pasilla". I may be stating the obvious, here, but I always find it fascinating, especially considering how common Mexican food is here and I think it's taken for granted as a convenience food sometimes. Great recipe! *hops off soapbox* I’ve always loved that Mexican food is really very complexly linked to specific types of chilies for each dish.

We had leftover turkey breast and corn tortillas to us up so we stuffed ours with turkey, cheddar cheese, and cilantro. Yum Yum! Lucky, we made enough for leftovers. Oh, did I say yummy? Yes, they are! My husband and I made your enchilada sauce. Yummmy! We had leftover turkey breast and corn tortillas to us up so we stuffed ours with turkey, cheddar cheese, and cilantro. Yum Yum!

Delicious--and rich---a salad to accompany is all you really need.

Yep. A big ole burrito. And my mom's enchiladas. The lack of Mexican cuisine here is killer... Good thing there is a lot of other great food in Japan to tide me over though! Wish I could have met up with you guys. Next time? Every time I leave Japan for the US I crave Chipotle. Yep. A big ole burrito. And my mom’s enchiladas.

I will definitely try these when I have some time on my hands. The sauce looks really delcious. I probably won't make my own tortillas though, unless I'm feeling seriously ambitious.
