     Who ever said that healthy is boring has never had my One Pot Posole!  Can I hear an Ole'!?  This huge amalgamation of everything I love comes together perfectly in each and every bite.  I made mine with Chicken, and I am not even sad about it.  Loads of vegetables in my version, and a protein punch that will keep you full for hours.  Each of the 8 two cup servings are only 318 calories, 33g carbs, 6g fiber, 27g net carbs, 31g protein and 7g fat.  Feel free to garnish as desired, but I used fresh Limes, Avocado, sliced Radish, Cilantro and shredded Lettuce (not included in macros).  Try this for your next large gathering, or divide it up into 2 cup containers and have it for lunch all week!  ;)
