    This is a big, hearty pot of Posole. I would have preferred a more true "Posole" flavor but I'm aware that as a vegetarian, there aren't a lot of things that taste like Chicken Broth! Had the soup with 2 T salsa & some lime juice stirred in last night. My meat eating fiancee tasted and approved. - 4/13/11
