Slow Cooker Pozole

An easy pozole recipe made in the slow cooker. You can add another can of hominy if your slow cooker is large. I prefer hot enchilada sauce with salsa, but the regular kind will do. Traditional Mexican pozole is served with shredded cabbage, lime wedges, avocado, onion, cilantro, and, of course, warm tortillas.
