Ingredients:

1 can (151⁄2 ounces) golden hominy

1 can (14.5 to 15.75 ounces) fat-free, reduced-sodium chicken broth

1 cup water

1 medium onion, chopped (about 1 1⁄2 cups)

4 medium garlic cloves, peeled and thinly sliced (2 tablespoons)

1 can (4 ounces) diced green chilies*

1 1⁄2 teaspoons ground cumin

1 teaspoon chili powder

1⁄2 cup dry roasted, unsalted peanuts, chopped

1 can (10 3⁄4 ounces) low-fat, low-sodium cream of mushroom soup

 

Directions:

Drain hominy and combine with broth, water, onion, garlic, chilies, cumin and chili powder in large saucepan. Bring to boil and simmer 10 minutes to blend flavors. Add peanuts and mushroom soup and stir until evenly mixed. Return to boil and simmer 5 minutes longer. Garnishes: parsley sprigs, dashes of chili powder or paprika and extra peanuts.

 

*For a milder stew, use 1⁄2 can (4-ounce size) green chilies.
