Sweet corn soup is my childhood favorite recipe, now I have modified it to make it more nutritious and filling. I add some more ingredients to the soup to get the maximum out of it. The soup is loaded with corn, peas, carrots, celery, bell pepper, mushrooms and some spices. Sweet corn and green pea soup is extremely tasty and healthy. Though you can use frozen corns and peas for this soup but it is advisable to use fresh corn cobs and peas for the preparation to avoid higher dose of sodium. Try this easy corn and green pea soup to your meal to get the high dose of antioxidants, vitamin, minerals and muscle building amino-acids. It also goes well with your streaks and baked fish recipes.
