It’s our anniversary today and we spent the whole day together here in New York (a thing of total rarity!!) slept in (till 7PT!!), worked out together, and walked and walked and walked. We also drank margaritas in the middle of the day, which is always nice. Now after a disco nap, we are heading out for what else? Greek Food. I can’t wait- I will tell you how it is.

Sweet Corn and Chicken Soup

In the mean time, I leave you with this soup. I know that you are probably elbow deep in grilling burgers and shoving s’mores in your mouth- but every weekend binge must be balanced with Monday health, right?!

Sweet Corn and Chicken Soup

And this soup is the perfect blend of wonderful, intensely delicious flavor with healthy, nutritious ingredients and myyyyyy favorite: super low maintenance. Like 20 minutes.

Sweet Corn and Chicken Soup

I know you are thinking it is a little early for corn, but who am I to argue against sweet delicious corn? I have been using it fresh a lot lately (it’s already in my grocery store?!) but for this soup, I used *GASP frozen corn!! (and it is great). It is the star of this soup, and really with just a few other ingredients, you can really taste the corn in every perfect mouthful! Enjoy!

Puree the frozen corn and the very hot broth and onions to the jar of a blender and puree on high until the soup is very creamy and smooth. You will have to do this in batches.
