This soup was very quick and easy to prepare. My husband is learning to cook and thought this recipe would be a good one to try. He made this using the whole can of tomatoes and green chilies and topped his with crumbled bacon. Good Soup. Thanks Juenessa. Bullwinkle

This is great for a fast lunch or dinner! Its easy and tastes great! I personally used about a cup of frozen corn and only one cup of milk. Came out great! Thanks for sharing the recipe

I JUST made this the other day and it is so delicious! I found it in an old edition of Quick Cooking that my mom had -- super easy and so good! The recipe I used called for a dash of hot sauce too -- it gave it just a little kick -- but it would've been good either way!! I'm excited to see this on here!
