Slow Cooker Posole

 

Posole

1 1/2 to 2 pounds thin boneless pork loin center cut chops
2 (10 ounce) cans enchilada sauce
1 (15.5 ounce) cans white hominy, drained
1 (7 ounce) can green chile
1 (32 ounce) box chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon cumin

Cut pork loin into bite size pieces. 

In large skillet with a small amount of oil, brown pork loin. 

In slow cooker, combine all ingredients.  

Mix well.  Cover.  

Cook on low 6 to 7 hours.

I live in New Mexico and there must be a law that says at every potluck someone must bring Posole.  Recently, I was chosen to provide the Posole for a potluck at our church.  I must confess, I was not their first choice.  The lady who usually makes the soup was out of town so the duty fell to me.  

I was really nervous about making this much loved soup!  I don't have time to make it the traditional way, with lots of ingredients and lots of time in the kitchen.  So I came up with this shortcut recipe.  I am happy to say everyone loved it! 

I used mild enchilada sauce.  If you like it very spicy, use medium or hot enchilada sauce.  I also like to serve sour cream on the side with the Posole. 

My new cookbook is available at schools, businesses, hospitals, and book fairs in cities across the United States.  Be sure to pick up a copy or two, when you see them.  They make great gifts!
