This dish represents, without a doubt, the pinnacle of Mexican gastronomy. The flavors are so rich and well developed that they will have you going back for seconds. Through every culture there is a wonderful design of tradition. In the ways of food as dietitians we like to take traditional foods and make subtle tweaks to keep your health on track. For this recipe we suggest switching the chocolate to dark chocolate for a higher antioxidant concentration and chicken bone broth for a greater protein amount. A couple other things we suggest are to not add additional salt or sugar “to taste” and allow your guests to enjoy as is, or tweak to their liking. Added sugar and salt are some of the biggest culprits when it comes to things that impact our lifestyles.
