I’ve made this cheater pozole several times but this time was the best. - add jalapeño, salt, and pepper to the sofrito - fresh oregano and add a bay leaf + 1tsp salt at the broth part and let sit for at least 30min - I happened to have leftover Mexican pinto beans (which had other spices, tomatoes, and chipotles in adobo) I put in which I think helped - more like 1/4c salsa verde if you used canned like my lazy ass, it’s very acidic All this allowed the soup to pretend it took hours to make, neat.
Made this with normal sweet chili sauce (no zero) easy and good meal. Hope to find the zero sugar for next time. Did egg roll vs taco and was even better!
