  1. This was a very tasty start. I have since made it a few more times and adjusted things for my families tastes. I have used turkey and/or chicken breast meat and doubled the amount. I have used fresh roasted green chilies. Broth instead of bouillon cubes. This was a great base recipe!! My family asks for it at least once a week.
     
  2. I made this for some friends we had invited over because it was an easy recipe and I didn't have to fuss over it. Our picky eater friend loved it. As suggested, I doubled the chicken amount, which was perfect. Because I wanted to use no salt added tomatoes, what I actually did was add two cans of unsalted diced tomatoes and one whole small can of diced green chiles, which worked out fine. I also used broth instead of bouillon as suggested. I added fresh cabbage, cilantro, and lime for garnish options, and the freshness added a nice bite and bit of texture. I wouldn't mind figuring out how to develop a little more flavor in the broth, but it may just need to sit for a day too.
     
  3. I followed the recipe to a T EXCEPT...I used pork, which is traditional, I think. And topped it with cilantro. Sooooo good. Used all the other ingredients exactly. Keeper.
     
  4. Sooooo Easy!! I would see my Nana slave over this dish every Saturday night to have it fresh every Sunday morning... Now this version is the best!! I added color to my pozole w/ colorful toppings! I submitted a photo of my bowl... Hopefully it will get approved :)
     
  5. The Soup would taste better if you used "Home Made Chicken Stock"!

  2. I used bone-in thighs (trimmed of the fat). I subbed chicken broth for the bouillon/water, added some green onion, subbed corn for hominy, and threw in a jalapeno pepper that needed to be used. I loved the hit of lime at the end - yummmm! I served with recipe #308361 & recipe #321401. Made for the Groovy GastroGnomes, Zingo ZWT5.
