Slow Cooker Pozole

Pozole or posole is a thick, hearty Mexican stew-like soup made with meat, hominy, and broth and seasoned with oregano and chiles. (The spelling depends on the region.) It can include pork, beef, chicken, or seafood. A mix of pork shoulder and chicken is common, but you can use just pork or chicken. Today’s recipe is this spicy comfort food from Mexico made in a slow cooker for ease. Mexican pozole is garnished with shredded cabbage, lime wedges, avocado, onion, radishes, cilantro, and, of course, warm tortillas. It’s definitely a one dish meal with the addition of the fresh toppings.
