OMG, this soup is delicious! It's better than the posole that my Mexican friend made me! The cabbage and avocado are the perfect garnishes for this soup. Next time, I'll also put some cilantro and lime in it. I thought 4 cans of hominy was too much so I only used 3 cans. It turned out great! Love this recipe!

What a great recipe!!! We have a local restaurant that makes this soup during the fall. I made it last night and my husband said it was just like our restaurants if not better. I shared this recipe with my coworker, she made it for her family & they all loved it. I will be sharing this one with other family & friends. For garnishments I used cabbage (thinly sliced), diced onions,cilantro(roughly chopped) & limes cut into small wedges.
