Spicy Turkey Soft Tacos
Don't be intimidated by the thought of making your own mole sauce. It's easy to prepare and comes together in a flash. Be careful, though: the turkey will spatter from time to time in the pan during the browning process.

Tried this recipe years ago and we really like it. Knowing that it could be spicy given the chipotle peppers and red pepper, I substituted a can of mild chiles and omitted the red pepper. None of my family likes spicy food; just flavorful food. This recipe is a great way to change up your taco night. Also, great for Thanksgiving leftovers.
I thought this was fabulous. Not a real mole by any means, but if it doesn't have an ingredient list the size of War and Peace, then don't expect it to be. Fast, easy and flavorful. I only used 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper because I was suspicious of using 1/2. It came out perfect. Just a tad spicy for my sensitive daughter, but I added sour cream to hers and she liked it.
Read MoreMole' is one of my favorite dishes on this planet. That being said, I used a little less than 1/4 tsp. of the ground red pepper and I only used about 1/2 of the sauce. This recipe was so overly spicy we couldn't even taste the wonderful organic smoked turkey I used or any of the other wonderful ingredients in the mole'. Although I don't tolerate super spicy foods, my husband does. He brought the over-spiciness up to me first. In fact, when he consumes something that is beyond his tolerance, he gets the hiccups. He did with this. To tone the heat, I made a lime crema (sour cream with lime juice) to drizzle over the top, which only made it slightly bearable. I was disappointed in the recipe.
