Tomato soup with chicken
Description
The recipe won't take much time. This simple, delicious soup is a wonderful first course option for the whole family. The standout ingredient is canned corn, so I highly recommend including it in the recipe. As a soup base, you can use plain water or previously prepared vegetable or chicken broth, for example. Before serving, you can make homemade croutons to perfectly complement the soup. You may also garnish it with fresh herbs and sour cream. The soup is ready to serve.
