5- Minute Mexican Mole Sauce (Vegan Recipe)
This amazing vegan Mexican mole sauce is literally done in 5 minutes and it’s the perfect addition to your Mexican recipes. It goes well with lentils, chickpeas, beans or tofu, and is just as amazing on top of roasted veggies! It’s soy-free, eggless, gluten free, plant-based, healthy, and my Mexican friends love it!
This mole sauce goes great in tacos! Here I mixed it with cooked black lentils for tacos, topped off with sautéed mushrooms, spicy olive muffalata, and some fresh parsley and watermelon radish.
