Hominy-The Wonder Food!

  • Hominy is one of those long lost treasures of that can replace higher calorie starches in your diet and in recipes. Hominy is a great substitute for corn and things that call for potatoes. 
  • The texture is meaty and is very satisfying to eat any time during the day. 
  • Hominy is super high in fiber, low in fat, and has a bit of protein too. 
  • Due to the high fiber content, it is really low in calories. 
  • It is also extremely inexpensive to buy. 
  • Large cans usually cost between $1.50-$2, and I've seen the "food service" sized cans go for under $3.00 on a regular basis.
  • Try it mixed in with eggs + Catsup or hot sauce. Try it in a meat and "potato" burrito in place of the potatoes. Try it to make Tuna Casserole instead of with Noodles. 
  • You will be surprised how many high calory starches you can replace with hominy-EXPERIMENT!
