I’ve been making a lot of tasty homemade Colombian soups lately and I want to share one of those recipes with you today. It’s important for me to show you the everyday Colombian recipes I grew up with and love. This is my mom’s Rice and Pork Soup recipe…it’s easy to make, inexpensive and it tastes great!
Buen provecho!
