Chicken Mole Potato Skins for Cinco de Mayo #SundaySupper

Chicken Mole Potato Skins for Cinco de Mayo #SundaySupper. We are celebrating Cinco de Mayo on #SundaySupper today!! Ole!! I loooooove Mexican food, can’t get enough!!

We were all at a small Mexican store just a couple of weeks ago as Ken was hunting for some jarred whole jalapeno peppers. While there we bought lots of wonderful meals and items.

One of them was a jar of mole sauce or paste. Although I had no idea what I would make with it at all. Then I looked at this week’s event and it is Mexican!!

Mole

I started to think about that jar of mole, pictured it with chicken but then what to do with it. For some reason, potato skins popped into my head but I didn’t want them deep-fried but healthier, so here is my recipe for Chicken Mole Potato Skins.

They turned out to be absolutely fabulous. Something I will for sure make again and again. A newfound Mexican treat!! We all loved them so much!!

Plus the homemade salsa went perfectly!!! Enjoy this week’s recipes and may they take you to a little sunny spot in beautiful Mexico!!
