By: J.D. 
"This is a recipe that I've modified to be low-fat and vegetarian. The original called for heavy cream and chicken broth. I think it is quite yummy and, especially good on chilly evenings!"

Original Recipe Yield 6 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 6 red potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 2 (11 ounce) cans whole kernel corn, undrained
  • 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup chopped sweet onion
  • 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 (12 ounce) package low-fat, firm silken tofu
  • salt to taste

Directions

  1. Place potatoes in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 30 minutes; drain.
  2. To the potatoes add corn, bell pepper, onion, red pepper flakes and vegetable broth. Boil for about 15 minutes; remove from heat.
  3. In a food processor or blender puree all but 1 1/2 cups of the vegetable and broth mixture with the tofu. Process in batches if necessary.
