Introduction

This is a great recipe when the garden is overflowing. This is a great recipe when the garden is overflowing.

Minutes to Prepare: 15

Minutes to Cook: 30

Number of Servings: 8

Ingredients

4 ears yellow corn, shucked

3 bell peppers, (red, orange or yellow), or

1 jar roasted peppers packed in water

5 Roma tomatoes, peeled, de-seeded and chopped, or 1 1/2 cups diced tomatoes, drained

1 T olive oil

1 large white or yellow onion, finely diced

pinch red pepper

1/4 t cumin, ground

1/2 t dried thyme

1/4 t black pepper

16 oz vegetable broth, low sodium

1 T chives, chopped (optional)

Tips

Any leftover soup can be used as a sauce to bake boneless chicken breasts. Garnish with parsley and sour cream, if desired.

Directions

Roast the corn and peppers over a grill set to medium heat or in a 400 degree oven until the kernels just start to brown and the skin of the peppers starts to char. Place the peppers in a paper bag or in a bowl covered with a kitchen towel.

Allow the peppers to steam and the corn to cool for 10 minutes.

Using a knife and slicing away from you, remove the kernels from the cob. Remove the core and charred skin from the peppers and chop the flesh.

Heat a large stock pot or saucepan over medium heat. Add the oil and, once hot, add the onions. Cook the onions for 3-4 minutes. Add the remaining vegetables and spices. Cook for 2-3 minutes.

Slowly add the stock and simmer for 20 minutes.
Puree the soup with an immersion blender or in food processor.

Make eight one-cup servings.

I "cheated" and used a bag of frozen corn which I put under the broiler to get some charred flavor. I didn't have time to roast the peppers, so I cooked them in the olive oil with the onions. I also used cilantro instead of chives as a garnish...It would be really good with chicken and/or avocado. - 7/24/10

Can you eat Paprika? You could substitute that spice for the peppers and add some zuchini for added texture. - 10/6/09

I thought it was just ok. Also, maybe I had small ears of corn but it definitely did not make 8 one-cup servings! Maybe 5, but even that would be a stretch. I wasn't amazed, but it wasn't bad. It might be better as a sauce than as a soup. - 11/10/09

Wow - yum! I also added a couple spicy peppers for a kick and I got it! And corn on the cob is not in season now, so I used frozen corn from my parents' garden and put it under the broiler with the peppers. It worked well. - 10/21/12

I didn't have an overflowing garden so I used 1/4 of a 33.5 oz. jar of Daily Chef Roasted Piquillo peppers, 12 oz. bag frozen corn, 14.5 oz can Muir Glen fire roasted tomatoes. Over the top flavor for so few calories! I'll make this one again and again. - 6/22/15
GOLDENRODFARM

Very yummy, I didn't puree it at all, and added about 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes, nice and spicy with good flavors. I can see this would be a more hearty meal with some chicken breast added and may do that next time I make it. - 10/21/14

I'm making it now, will let you know how it turns out. It sure looks good and I love the idea about using leftovers for a sauce. DONE.. MY husband loves it- he walked in and suggested I only puree half of it because he likes some texture. Actually, it is too sweet for me (the corn) but he LOVES i - 6/28/14

Taste good. Would purée the peppers (after roasting) and the tomatoes. Like to have more crunch so leave corn as is. - 11/9/13

This recipe came this morning in my mailbox, as if someone new that I have leftover corn and peppers from yesterday's bbq. I added one red chili pepper and double the amount of stock. It's awesome! - 7/22/13

I ususally 'grill' frozen corn kernals in an iron griddle on top of stove - still get the parched taste - its much easier no mess

Why add the empty calories and artery clogging olive oil? NO oil is "healthy", some are just LESS harmful. - 7/22/13

Made this for lunch today just as printed. I thought it was delish. Great way to use garden produce; some was left so I will also try it as a sauce to cook chicken or as a base for homemade vegetable soup. :) - 8/31/12

Very Good

I thought this was great as I modified it. I was really surprised the recipe didn't call for roasting the tomatoes since you already had to roast the peppers and corn. The roasted tomatoes added some great flavor. I used fresh basil instead of thyme. And I sprinkled the roasted corn on top. YUM! - 8/30/12

I made this with a few changes: I pureed the tomatoes and sauteed onions, put in pot with chicken broth. I then added the corn, diced green peppers, and spices. It seemed a little sparse and bland, so I diced up some zucchini and added a bay leaf and a few shakes of creole seasoning...perfect! - 8/12/12

I actually left out the vegetable broth as after I added the roasted peppers and corn, and the onions (which I browned first), I felt like there was plenty of flavor already. I just used water. Very, very flavorful soup! - 7/23/12
