"This was a hit! It wasn't what I thought it would be because I don't think the corn was the major player in this soup, but it was delightful nonetheless! I use a bit extra tomato paste and I put som..." See moree beef boullion in with the water to give it some extra flavor. I will make this again and again! Yum!"
