Sometimes all it takes is a big bowl of Corn and Potato Soup to satisfy your hunger. This comfort food will warm your body and make your belly happy!

**This recipe recently was revamped. Just new pictures and a video, but the delicious recipe stays the same!

I am such a lover of soup! Whether its hot or cold, soup always tastes good! I love pairing corn and potatoes together.

It makes me think of my mom. She loved to eat mashed potatoes topped with corn! This soup is essentially that dish but in “soup” form. Isn’t it great when food can bring back happy memories?

    Yum. Corn & potato chowder was always my favorite (even when I was not a vegetarian and still ate fish—never did get into clam chowder, the soup of my native New England land). This looks good!

    I think a green salad would be really good with this soup. Since they’re in season, I’d probably make a salad with pomegranate seeds. I think they would add a nice brightness to the salad and would complement the meal.

    Looks good! Corn is the one veggie that I prefer canned over frozen, so I would use that.. more of a bite to it (since fresh season is done)!

    Sounds great, but I can’t have corn kernels. I would add ham and top with scallions. I would serve it with a tossed salad and sliced bread. All gluten free of course.

    This looks delicious! How do you get your daiya cheese to melt into a soup? Mine just always ends up being warm shreds of the cheese.

    Reply
    • Cindy Gordon says

      October 5, 2015 at 9:58 am

      When I make with daiya cheese, I melt it on a very low heat, just warm enough to melt it and I continually stir. Its very tricky with the daiya. I still have super high hopes that someday soon we will have a dairy free cheese that melts beautifully! Fingers crossed!

        Thank you for the tip! I will make sure I stir continually for a more even cheesy sauce. And here is to hoping!!

          On a side note totally unrelated to this recipe, there is a super good dairy free queso here: I love it and by practicing making this, with the stirring, whisking etc it’s helped me to better melt it other times 😉 And it tastes amazing!

    I make creamy potato soup almost every week, but this recipe with corn looks good too. I will include this in our menu plan for next week. I am sure this will be another winner.
