To make enchiladas, warm the sauce gently in a saucepan over medium heat. Dip corn tortillas briefly in the warm sauce to soften them, then fill with your choice of ingredients such as cheese, chicken, or beans. Roll the filled tortillas and place them seam-side down in a baking dish. Pour the remaining sauce over the rolled enchiladas, sprinkle with cheese, and bake until bubbly and heated through. It can also be used as a base for other dishes or as a flavorful topping.
