omg this sauce is BURSTING with all of the bold, authentic flavor of traditional mole sauce, yet it is so stinking easy to make thanks to mesa de vida's latin sauce! I love making this as tostadas (a crunchy corn tortilla), but have also enjoyed them as tacos (a soft corn tortilla). however, you choose to enjoy it, you are going to be transported to a fiesta!
