    Vegetarian Red Pozole

    November 11, 2022 By Patrick 8 Comments

    This is a great Vegetarian Red Pozole recipe to keep in mind!  Be sure to add some savoriness to your Pozole -- I used some veggie stock with nutritional yeast, but you could also just add some fat to your broth to get a similar effect.

    I made a gallon of this Vegetarian Red Pozole last week and slurped up every single ounce of it 🙂 Pozole is typically simmered with pork, but here I'm making a vegetarian version and it can be just as satisfying when you make a few key adjustments.  It brought me loads of soul-warming meals throughout...
