For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika or a dash of your favorite hot sauce to the hominy mixture. Feel free to substitute other cheeses, such as cheddar, Oaxaca, or pepper jack, based on your preference. If you prefer a spicier dish, use hot diced green chiles or add a pinch of cayenne pepper. This dish can be made ahead of time and reheated. Simply store the cooked hominy mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave before serving.
