Did you know that…
It was the Maya who discovered the perfect way to make a tortilla in ancient times. The key is grinding the corn in a limestone container that releases calcium into the dough. This process, called nixtamalization, actually improves the protein structure of corn making it more nutritious. Today we use the same process to make our nixtamal corn tortillas and fill them with fire-roasted corn, a chipotle pepper sauce and other delicacies passed down from the Maya.

The Universe knows I'm alive!I'm diabetic. I don't eat meat or fish. And I live a very busy life so I depend on quick or frozen foods a lot. I just tried Enchiladas al Chipotle and while the food looked nothing like the picture on the box when I peeled off the film, it tasted wonderful. I plan to try all of Saffron Road's vegetarian options, but I think I'll like these enchiladas best. And for what it's worth, I suspect the reviewers that say this food doesn't taste "Mexican" enough are comparing it to so-called Mexican food you typically get at fast food restaurants in the U.S. I think these enchiladas, rice, and beans are perfect just the way they are. And I'm comparing them to what I ate in Cholula. Whatever you're doing, Saffron Road, please don't stop.

Does not taste Mexican the way it should beI bought this from Krogers store and picture looked tempting but the food had not much flavor of Mexican food. I will try other of their products but not this one.

Enchiladas excellent. Beans and rice--no!The enchiladas were excellent. But the rice was unflavored white rice, and the beans were flavorless. I see the rice is said to be garlic, I could not taste it.
