  3. 3
    add the leek and corn, cook for 5 more minute.
  4. 4

Spicy Single Female Variation Being a single female, I halfed this recipe so that I wouldn't have to eat it for 2 weeks straight. I also made a few minor substitutions and left out the leek and thyme. Here is my variation: Ingredients 1 tsp cooking oil 1/2 yellow onions, diced 1 (15 1/4 ounce) cans yellow and white corn 4 small red potatoes 1/2 teaspoon cumin 1/4 teaspoon chili powder 1 (15 1/4 ounce) cans creamed white corn 1 cup soy milk (to thin the soup) 1/4 teaspoon ancho chili pepper 1 teaspoon dried or fresh cillantro ground pepper (to taste) 1 cup black bean corn salsa Make recipe according to directions. This variation yields 9 cups which for me is four servings as a meal. I would recommend cooking the soup at least 30 minutes. The red potatoes were still hard after 20 minutes on my gas stove. Very yummy!

    This recipe was quite wonderful for the ease of preparation. Do NOT overdo the chili powder--this is probably common sense, but I did by accident and it really overpowered the dish. I loved how simple and healthy it was with the absence of heavy cream or roux. I fed this to my fiance and he said "it definitely tastes low fat," but he still enjoyed it quite a bit (loved the red potatoes). I will probably make this again--though the taste isn't phenomenal, it's a very creative and easy dish.

    This is FANTASTIC!!! Instead of the oil, I fried a few strips of bacon that I cut up. And, I also added a couple of ribs of celery. For the whole k. corn I used white corn. Very Good GAY!!!

    I made this the 1st time as written (minus leeks as I didn't have any on hand) & it was very good. However, I have made it several times again with a few minor adjustments. I started by cooking onions, garlic, & potatoes in oil until soft, then added the jalapenos, followed by the spices (I used 2 teaspoons of chili powder as we like things spicy), then sprinkled about a tablespoon of flour over the ingredients. Then I added about a cup of broth. Then added the corns & lastly the milk & let it cook for about 30 minutes. Served with mexican shredded cheese on top..yum! Still a good dish either way you make it, it is very versatile. Thanks so much for sharing.
