So many ways to make tasty tacos!! I used to live in the jungle on an island in Bocas Del Toro, Panama. There I learned how to make so many delicious dishes. I worked at an eco lodge with local Indigenous Panamanians, the Ngobe people. The ladies taught me so much about their language and their food! Hilda taught me Mole, which takes all day to make in order for the spices and flavors to synergize. This recipe is very much an adaptation of a traditional mole, infused with some medicinal mushies for immunity and brain power!
