Turkey Mole

I unearthed some of the Thanksgiving turkey that I had stashed in the freezer for tonight's dinner.


Turkey in mole sauce (Dona Maria brand),  refried beans, rice, pineapple, and avocado. I haven't done the math on this meal, and I know the mole sauce is pretty high-fat, so I just took small portions and hoped for the best.

Leftover Lunch: Chana Masala with Naan

Today's lunch is what remains of last night's dinner: about 3/4 cup of Chana Masala and half a piece of Trader Joe's naan.


It tastes better than it looks, I swear!
