Crock Pot Posole

PaulaG's Note:

There are so many versions but none easier than this. I usually get it ready the night before and refrigerate overnight. Before going to work, I take it out and plug it in. Dinner is ready when I get home. You might want to adjust the amount of chili and seasonings for personal taste. Serve this with corn or flour tortillas.

This was very good, and I will make it again. I made two small changes to accommodate our tastes. I made it with chicken breasts instead of pork, and added a little olive oil when I browned it to make up a bit of the richness of pork. Also, I added about 12 ounces of chicken broth to make it a little wetter. Thanks for sharing!

I absolutely love this recipe, and have made it countless times! I was looking for a good Posole recipe and stumbled across this one. Definitely worth the try!
