"Our family loves Mexican food, but I couldn't find a recipe for homemade burritos that we liked as much as the frozen varieties," comments Terry Ann Christensen of Roy, Utah. "So I came up with a not-too-spicy homemade sauce that dresses them up."

This is favorite recipe. I'm often asked for the recipe. It can be made ahead of time which is wonderful for those busy days. Just take it out of the refrigerator and bake it as usual.

Very easy using any pre-made burritos;

I also make this enchilada sauce when I make my own enchiladas. The sauce is excellent!

Sent this in to a potluck at husbands work. Everyone wanted the recipe. It's our personal favorite. We use any kind of burritos. I put dry ingredients together in a baggy and I have a quick motorhome recipe too.
