About GREEN ENCHILADA SAUCE, GREEN ENCHILADA

Meijer Green Enchilada Sauce is an organic green tomatillo-based enchilada sauce sold under the Meijer private label, positioned as a cleaner-label option made from certified organic ingredients. Green enchilada sauce, known in Mexican cuisine as salsa verde, is made from tomatillos rather than red chiles, delivering a tangy, herbal character that differentiates it from red enchilada sauce.

Ingredients are organic tomatillos, organic roasted green chile peppers, organic poblano peppers, and water as primary components. In smaller quantities, the sauce contains organic sugar, sea salt, organic cilantro, organic onion powder, organic garlic powder, organic yeast extract, and citric acid. The use of all-organic ingredients and the absence of artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors supports a clean-label positioning. Organic yeast extract functions as a natural flavor enhancer. No food allergens are declared.

Nutritionally, a 60-gram serving (approximately one-quarter cup) provides approximately 20 calories, 4 grams of carbohydrates, 1.7 grams of fiber, 1 gram of protein, and no fat.
