We plated all the garnishes family style so that everyone at the table could add whichever they like to their bowl of shrimp pozole.
I like limes, my husband likes lemons … this is where you can really make this dish extra special for each person in the family by including their favorite pozole toppings with the meal. And when you're choosing to go meatless, the experience is made even better with special touches like this.
What are your plans for Lent?
I'd love to know if you have any meatless favorite recipes that you make during this time of year … leave me a comment all about it!
