Sweet and Spicy Corn and Hominy Pozole
We're making pozole, a wonderful Southwestern stew of bean, hominy, and corn. With fire-roasted tomatoes, adobo sauce, and poblanos, this is a sweet and smoky dish that will leave you full and happy.
Smarts: Poblanos are dark green and longish peppers. If you can't find them sub 1 green pepper / 2 poblanos and add a bit more heat to the final product!
