Lent season is in full swing; this Chacales Soup is a traditional recipe that is meat-free and made with cracked corn. Making it the perfect recipe to prepare during Lent or all year round. The unique texture and flavor of the soup take me back to the time spent in my mom's kitchen. The soup is typically enjoyed during the Lent season and has been passed down through generations. The aroma of the soup, while it simmered on the stove, was simply divine, and every spoonful was an explosion of flavors in my mouth.
