-
1 pound Pure Farmland® Simply Seasoned Plant-Based Protein Starters
-
1 ancho chile in adobo sauce
-
3 tablespoons adobo sauce from can
-
1 teaspoon ground cumin
-
1 teaspoon mild chile powder
-
6 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
-
1 (15 ounce) can yellow hominy, drained
-
2 large bay leaves
-
½ teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
-
1 pinch kosher salt, or more to taste
To Serve:
-
8 sprigs of cilantro, small stems only, or more as needed
-
1 medium avocado, peeled and diced
-
2 medium radishes, thinly sliced
-
2 medium limes, each cut into 6 wedges
-
2 cups tortilla chips
Directions
-
Heat a large Dutch oven or pot over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil, then onion, celery and garlic. Cook 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, then add the zucchini. Cook 5 more minutes, until zucchini is slightly softened, then remove from heat. Transfer vegetables to a plate and reserve.
-
Return pot to medium heat. Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, then Protein Starter. Using a wooden spoon, break apart into pieces about 1/2-inch big. Cook 8 to 10 minutes or until Protein Starter is lightly golden. Add ancho chile, adobo sauce, ground cumin, and chile powder. Cook 2 more minutes, breaking up ancho chile with spoon.
-
Add vegetable broth, hominy, bay leaves, oregano, and reserved vegetable mixture. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce to medium-low heat and cook 10 to 12 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Season with kosher salt, if desired.
-
To serve, top with cilantro leaves, diced avocado, and radishes. Serve with lime wedges and tortilla chips, if desired.
Cook's Note:
Instead of tortilla chips, you can also use broken tostada shells for garnish.
