You clearly have this all under control. It would be typical of
Mexican cooking to add cumin and oregano to the chili powder, and of
course you can always use minced garlic with the onion instead of the
garlic powder. I think a thread not too long ago noted that cotija
cheese often gets crumbled over enchiladas at the end. Oh, and there's
cilantro, to be sure... :-) . My sister is the enchilada maker in
the family and she prefers the LaPalma brand of sauce; I pretty much
think they're all okay. -aem
