Mexican Mole Sauce

SUBMITTED BY: ROSEP47 PHOTO BY: FOODGU1

"This is a good version to make with ingredients you can keep on hand. Serve with a rotisserie chicken or your own cooked chicken to give it an entirely different flavor. Rice and/or tortillas plus salad greens, sliced avocado, and chopped tomatoes round out a simple but special meal."
