Slow-Cooker Posole - 25.7g Carbs, 4.4g Fiber

From: www.allrecipes.com - By: Jules

"Made in a slow cooker, this streamlined version of classic Mexican
Posole combines traditional ingredients such as hominy, green chiles,
garlic, onions, oregano, and enchilada sauce with cubed pork."

"Traditional Mexican Posole is served with shredded cabbage, lime wedges, avocado, onion, cilantro, and, of course, warm tortillas. Many Mexican
markets have posole meat already chopped up for you. You can add another
can of hominy if your slow-cooker is large. I prefer hot enchilada sauce
with salsa, but the regular kind will do."

Prep Time: 20 Minutes

1 onion, sliced
1/2 cup green chilies, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper, or to taste
2 tsp dried oregano
