Posole Casserole (Mexican)

A few people have requested a Mexican casserole recipe lately.
Here is a Mexican casserole usually served at Christmas. I
have tried this one and it is very good. Hope this is what you
are looking for.

Posole Casserole
Serves 12

2 medium onions, coarsely chopped
3 tbsp. olive oil
1 medium zucchini, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp. chili powder
2 tsp. ground cumin
2 cans (15 1/2 oz. each) yellow hominy, drained
1 tbsp. fresh squeezed lime juice
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheeses
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped

Cook onions in a heavy large skillet over medium high heat
5 minutes or until onions begin to soften. Stirring frequently,
add zucchini, garlic, chili powder, and cumin; cook about 5
minutes or until onions begin to brown. Reduce heat to medium
low. Add hominy, lime juice, salt, and pepper; stir until well
blended. Continue cooking until hominy is heated through.
Remove from heat. Stir in cheese and chopped cilantro. Garnish
with cilantro leaves and serve warm.

Note: You can add chopped chicken or chorizo if you want to add meat.
