We loved this hearty soup!!! Perfect combination of ingredients that is full of flavor, filling and oh so satisfying. My husband insists that I make this again and again. I am so glad I found this recipe. Thanks for sharing, KGCOOK.

My husband and I loved this soup! We had some friends over the next day and they scraped the pot clean. Next time we make this my husband suggested substituting a broccoli/cauliflower mixture for the potatoes/corn. Thanks for posting!

A nice, quick and easy soup! Great for a cold day. I omitted the salt and used skim milk. Thanks for sharing!
