-----------------------------------
Green enchilada sauce gets its signature color and tangy flavor from green chiles and tomatillos rather than the red chiles used in traditional red enchilada sauce. La Preferida adds jalapeños and spices for extra depth and a mild-to-medium kick.
The result is brighter and tangier than red enchilada sauce, making it especially good with chicken, vegetables, rice, beans, and cheese-forward dishes.

"Have not actually purchased on Amazon yet. Was checking to see if it was available as the only grocery here that was carrying it, seems to be discontinuing most or all of their La Preferida products. Very discouraging. Other enchilada sauces taste too strong of vinegar and it just has good flavor. I have been using this for probably 8 to 10 years. I prefer their refried beans as well."
"The absolute best canned green enchilada sauce! The red is even better! I was desperate after my local grocery store discontinued this and was happy to find it here on Amazon at a decent price. Makes THE best chicken enchiladas."
