I ended up with too much sauce that was too thin, so I cut out a cup of water, and used a few tablespoons of cornstarch and simmered it down for another 5 minutes at the end, and the sauce was PERFECT! Since my family and I eat Biblically kosher, I nixed out the pork sausage, and used all ground turkey or beef. I even use the sauce instead of the salsa-sour cream sauce when making the cream cheese chicken enchiladas (reduce the cream cheese by half) from another issue, and they truly are the BEST enchiladas I have EVER HAD in my entire life.
