What a great idea to use pumpkin in a savory way!  I love enchilada sauce, but adding pumpkin to it just takes it over the top.  Wonderful idea!

Holy harvest! This sauce looks delicious!

It is great you didn't give up after the first try ! This enchilada sauce looks delicious and packed with some wonderful flavors, I really want to try it! I like to buy the same brand pumpkin pure, it is really good!

I noticed that in the comments, of the several I read, no one actually made it. Well, I roasted 3 baking pumpkins today. In scanning recipes I came across this one so I gave it a try. After I blended the ingredients I simmered on the stove for about 30 minutes. I gave it a taste. It's not bad. Not at all the flavor or consistency of enchilada sauce. It's more like a Mexican pumpkin puree. I actually got 2 pint jars and refrigerator them. I'll use it. I may mix it with ground beef or chicken and use in Tacos or turn it into a soup.
