salsa corn chowder soup

Cooler weather definitely calls for soup simmering on the stove.

I'm a big soup fan and here's my list of posted favorite soups - most of which I've made. This Crock Pot Tortilla soup is one of my favorites and I even make this to serve here in the desert sun.

I used to make this Salsa Corn Chowder frequently but for whatever reason, haven't made it in ages.

Guess what will be on our dining room table tonight?

Salsa Corn Chowder– Serves 6—8

Ingredients
1 1/2c chopped onion

1 T chili powder

1 t ground cumin

1 T flour

1 16 oz pk. sweet corn (thawed)

2 c salsa

13 3/4 oz can chicken broth,

1 8 oz container of soft cream cheese,

1 c milk, fresh

springs of cilantro


First, in a large saucepan saute your onions in butter in a large saucepan.
Stir in your flour and your seasonings.Add your thawed corn, salsa, broth and bring this to a boil and then immediately remove it from the heat.

Now, gradually add 1/4c of your hot mixture to your cream cheese (which you have already put into a bowl).Stir this well until it’s blended.

Continue until it’s all combined and blended.

Cook this until it’s thoroughly heated. DO NOT BOIL. Serve immediately in bowls and top each bowl with a small sprig of cilantro.
