My Mom loves El Torito, so when she visits we eat there often. I have always ordered enchilads that come with their traditional red sauce. When not at a Tex-Mex place, I have always assumed red sauce was safe -- the Latinos I grew up with never used anything much more than chili, garlic, water, and some oil in their red sauces. I was looking for a copy cat recipe for then El Torito red sauce and found one that had beef broth in it. :puke: That freaked me out completely, so I went to their website and submitted a question about their sauce. Here is their answer:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thank you for writing with your question. Our enchilada sauce is prepared with chicken base. Our rice is prepared with chicken base as well. Our refried beans are prepared with vegetable oil.
We do have vegetable fajitas on our menu. In addition we offer non-fat vegetarian frijoles de la jolla (beans) as a substitution. You can also order any entree with any of the following vegetarian sauces as substitutes.
Roasted Tomatillo Sauce Chile De Arbol Adobo Sauce Relleno Sauce
I hope this was helpful.

I spent all day yesterday thinking about that last double enchilada I had there the night before. :puke:
I hate when that happens.
