Chef's notes
This is a meal prep posole recipe whose ingredients you can memorize and pick up without needing to look anything up online.
Chips of all shapes and sizes and flavors are a must in this situation.
Cheese and sour cream really help the spicy posole situation cool down a bit.
Make this on Sunday or early in the week for a solid 6 servings and it stores well in the fridge.
