"I have shamelessly ripped off restaurant menu items on a fairly consistent basis, tweaked them this way and that and made my own. This burrito recipe is one of many recipes I've blatantly stolen. I am no longer to be trusted. Even Denny's reserves the right to serve me."

What a fun combo! I made homemade mole sauce and pico de gallo and used a pepperjack blend for the cheese. The flavors came together wonderfully. I made one minor change - due to food allergies, I used corn tortillas instead of wheat or spelt. Thanks for sharing! Veg*n Swap 25

Ummm, this is going to be a weird review. I am giving it 4 stars, but every single person in my house hated these. However we can trace the source of hatred to the storebought mole sauce I used. Also none of us had ever had mole. However, if I had left off the mole, this would have definitely been 4 stars burritos! :) And for people who already love mole sauce, or who can take the time to make their own, this will prolly be at least 4 stars as written. Thank you for posting. Made for ZWT5 for the Groovy GastroGnomes!
