MENUDO
A friend of mine who owned a Mexican Food restaurant for many years gave me his recipe for Menudo. It was one of his most popular menu items. I have tweaked it a little, adjusting spices to my taste, and have been making this for years. I get many requests for this during the holidays. It is a wonderfully rich and flavorful soup...
