Enchilada Sauce makes and excellent base for soups.  The spices are great and its lower in calories and carbs than using tomato sauce.

update:  find or make a red enchilada sauce that uses red chiles as the main ingredient not tomato.

I'm not seeing that.

Pace Enchilada Sauce: 8fl oz.
Calories  100
Carbs 20g
Fiber 4g
Protein 4g

Campbells Tomato Juice: 8fl oz
Calories  50
Carbs 10g

I don't think that would be true for a home made sauce either.  I picked Pace & Campbells because they are from the same company.

Still, it would be a good base for soups.

That was my point, 100 (or 108 in your case) calories per cup didn't compare with tomato juice.
