Spicy Soyrizo Soup
with hominy / chayote / cabbage / pinto beans

Active: 30 min Total: 30 min
With spicy soyrizo and a variety of vegetables, this soup has many different textures and flavors.
Smarts: Store-bought salsa is an easy way to build another layer of flavor into the soup. The soup will also get a does of spice from jalapenos (if you choose to use them) and soyrizo, so be sure to use a mild salsa if you prefer less spice.
