Gluten free, paleo, clean eating....whatever...this is just good tasting food! Sometimes I feel like we (myself especially) get so caught up with labels. We label everything - fashion choices, lifestyles, diets, people! For some reason we like to compartmentalize until everything is separated into nice orderly groups. Maybe that's why I like cooking so much. I can start with things that are separated into their appropriate spots in my spice cupboard, pantry, and fridge and bring them together to make something new with every meal.
This delicious homemade enchilada sauce isn't anything incredibly unique, except that it's made from scratch - not a can labeled "enchilada sauce". Truthfully, I don't trust labels much of any kind. What's that saying, "you can't judge a book by it's cover.... or a can by its label?" Something like that.
Anyway, this enchilada sauce turned out so yummy! And as anyone knows the best thing about a slow cooker isn't just the infusion of flavors, but the thoughtless ease of the dinner time rush. The chicken shreds apart easily after a few hours simmering in the sauce, then just pile some into a lettuce leaf wrap or tortilla and top it with my super simple Mango Guacamole!
Like I said, it's just good food however you want to label it.
