Chorizo and Vegetable Posole is my recipe of the day with the blogging group Soup Swappers. Once a month we group up on the third Saturday to  share soup and stew recipes with a common  theme. This month the theme is meal sized soups and stews.

Posole is a Mexican soup which is usually made with dried hominy. This is an easier version utilizing canned hominy instead. Besides the ease of prep, it also makes for a more manageable smaller portion size overall.

It has a light spiciness (depending hot hot the salsa is). And it is very hearty with the hominy, potatoes and beans pairing  with the sausage. It makes a perfect meal size soup. I’d probably pair it with  tortillas. Or for something a tiny bit more substantial, cheese quesadillas.
