Creamy Corn and Potato Soup

SERVES: 10

COOK TIME: 25 Min

Making soup from scratch doesn't have to be a chore when you know shortcut secrets. Creamy Corn and Potato Soup is thickened by its potatoes and cream-style corn, so lip-smackin' goodness is guaranteed in every spoonful.

What You'll Need

1 small onion, chopped
2 carrots, diced
2 tablespoons butter
5 1/4 cups chicken broth
4 large potatoes, peeled and diced (see Option)
3 (14-3/4-ounce) cans cream-style corn
2 cups (1 pint) heavy cream
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon sugar

What to Do

In a soup pot, saute onion and carrots in butter over medium heat for 5 to 6 minutes, or until tender.
Add chicken broth and potatoes. Bring to a boil and cook 12 to 15 minutes, or until potatoes are fork-tender.
Add remaining ingredients, and cook 8 to 10 minutes, or until heated through. Serve immediately.

Option

Give this even more color by using red-skinned potatoes (enough to equal 4 large white potatoes) and leaving their skin on.

The first time you make any recipe you are supposed to make it exactly how the recipe is printed or how are you supposed to know if you really like it or not? Then you are supposed to review the recipe and let people know if you liked it or not. Then next time make your changes. You people are reviewing yourselves and not the actual recipe as printed

I omitted the sugar and left the skins on the potatoes as well as used half and half instead of heavy cream. This is definitely a keeper.

This soup is WONDERFUL !!!!! I added small chunks of chicken and a handful of spinach, didn't add the teaspoon of sugar because the cream corn made it sweet enough. very easy to make :)

This is the absolute best soup I have eaten! It was very simple too. I left the skins on the potatoes and used half and half instead of heavy cream. It was perfect! Thank you Mr. Food!
