Oh so delicious. This is on the web as coming from a cookbook called More White Trash Cooking. I made a similar change like the previous reviewer: adding a can of cream-style corn instead of frozen corn. It's true that this soup would be fine with less cream, too. As written, it's very rich and luscious. Next time I think I'll cut back on the cream a tad. This soup isn't spicy but might take well to some added Tabasco, if that's the direction you'd want to go. Lovely soup!!

To interesting not to make this. VERY good! The only thing I did different - to cut down on fat and calories - was to add a can of cream style corn, and only 1/4 cup of half and half. Thanks - will be making again!
