If you've made Mole with Chicken or Bacalao tacos recently, you'll know that there can be lots of leftovers. Sometimes, I'll just heat up the dish again to enjoy it a second time, but most days, I want to use those meals as a base for a beautiful sandwich. That's what these two recipes are all about! Throw a party, make a crowd-pleasing dinner, and the next day you can have a beautiful, easy lunch torta made of the leftovers.

    Looks great. Half the meals I make are put together with leftovers. LOL. Doesn't feel like eating leftovers when you make something different with them.
  • @Kevin_747
    Leftovers are always better the next day. Great looking sandwiches.

  • @debcarpenter8519
    Rick, your leftovers are probably better than takeout at some restaurants! 😂
  • @natr0n
    Would go for the bacalao one.

    In Mazatlán we don't have much mole. The most popular torta here is either going to be a jamon y queso (ham & cheese) or pierna (shaved pork leg meat). My preference is still the torta ahogada con carnitas y cebolla con salsa de arbol. I'm ordering 4 of them for this weeks lunches as we speak! LoL.

    Deeelicous! Any mole that might go best with leftover beef roast?
  • @lvelez1999
    I dont like olives and cant eat jalapeños bur mayo, a little onion and ketchup sounds good.
