Directions
Mexican Corn Soup, This is perfect for a cold day! The cheese and sour cream make this soup delicious and if you want to make it extra special add some avocado! Recipe courtesy Ingrid Hoffmann , I made a few changes and this was still very good–used half and half rather than cream and had no fresh tomatoes so used 2 tablespoons of tomato paste
