Chicken and Sweet Corn Soup
Kaira from Kaira’s Kitchen shares this great recipe for Chicken and Sweet Corn Soup. Thanks for sharing Kaira, can’t wait to try this soup.
I love the convenience of a one meal dish simmering over the stove top. And soups are perfect in every sense. You can have them as part of the meal or even a light lunch/supper on it’s own. I grew up in a family where soup is a must-have dish during dinner on top of many other dishes that my Mom would cook. It’s part of our culinary culture.
