With this winter being so bitterly cold soup has been a weekly staple on our menu. So, I am always on the hunt for something new and I love it even more if it is healthy, especially if we all like the taste of it. This one touched on all three of those things and I will definitely be making it again. The hubs likes anything with some corn in it since that is his favorite veggie, so this one ranked high on his list! I also like the chowder part of the soup, since I like my soups a little thicker!
