I originally found this recipe on Nestle's website and, after having it stored on my computer for the longest time, tried it earlier this week. I added homemade rivvels (Amish dumplings), plus one diced, cooked chicken breast after my DH jokingly asked if I were trying to turn him into a vegetarian. After tasting, I added some chili powder, onion powder and garlic powder. Oh yes, and I used an entire 7-oz can of diced green chiles (rather than the 4-oz listed in the recipe). When plating, I sprinkled diced, cooked bacon on top and served with toasted garlic bread. It was wonderful!

    This was a good soup, but it wasn't what I would call hearty. I served it with a slice of cornbread, and that combination was yummy. I liked that the ingredients were things I can keep on hand. It was good on a cold night and the paprika gives in a pretty color. Next time I would try serving it with a panini or sub sandwich. I made this recipe for the "Belly Warmers: Soups and Stews" January Event. Thanks for sharing your recipe!

    This was perfect! I was looking for a recipe that didn't require a trip to the store for ingredients, and I wanted to use up what I already had on hand. This is delicious and simple to make and surprisingly healthy too! I didn't have creamed corn, but I threw in some frozen peas instead. Next time I'll throw in some cayenne pepper or some spicy chilies for more heat. THANK YOU FOR POSTING!
