This was a hit! It wasn't what I thought it would be because I don't think the corn was the major player in this soup, but it was delightful nonetheless! I use a bit extra tomato paste and I put some beef boullion in with the water to give it some extra flavor. I will make this again and again! Yum!

Love this recipe, great success with all my friends. I add two cubes of broth in the water, which makes it a bit richer. I also use slighty less garlic, but add som extra chili. Serve it with hot bread and butter.

Okay soup - needs more tomato flavour though - the only real flavour coming through was the cayenne pepper and garlic. I think next time I'll add an extra can of tomato paste or make it with beef broth instead of water.

I accidentally made some changes, but I like the way it came out so well that I'll probably make it that way again! Our peppers had gone bad, so instead of the peppers we just used a whole 11 oz can of corn (about 1 1/2 cups) and a little extra ground beef. I accidentally used double the cayenne, which my husband (who is insane) thinks was perfect, but was just a little too much for me; should maybe use 1 1/2 times the amount if you like hot food. It came out very thick and stewlike, great for a cold winter night! Also a great way to use up lots of leftover tomato paste, which I always seem to have.
