What is mole?
Mole (pronounced moh-lay) is a sauce that is highly important to Mexican cuisine. Mole is made in countless variations, and for our Mexican Quinoa Bowl, we use a version known as mole poblano. This variety is the most well known to the American palette, and uses cacao as a main ingredient. We make our own mole poblano in-house using organic raw cacao, which provides a wonderfully warm and earthy flavor to this meal.
Is this meal spicy?
Not so much hot, as it is flavorful. We include many warming spices such as coriander, cumin and cinnamon. If spicy-hot just isn't your thing, have no fear! This is a mild dish.
