For the lady who wants meatless soups for Lent.
I can't give proportions as I make this without a recipe, but this is how I do it and it is not difficult,

Creme Of Corn Soup
Bake 4-5 potatoes, cool, peel and cut in chunks
Put 4 cups chicken broth in large saucepan, add potatoes, and minced onion to suit your taste
Bring to boil and simmer to break the potatoes down to a softer consistency.
Add 2 cans cream style corn, salt and pepper to taste and simmer about 10 minutes longer.
At this time I process in my blender to a creamy consistency, usually in several batches so as not to spill over when whirling.

Return to pot ,add 2 cans Carnation milk and and rinse cans with 1 cup water and add to pot. Simmer til hot.

I sometimes add some cumin, parsley, or what you would like to add flavor. If necessary, some instant potato flakes can be stirred in to thicken to suit.
This is a forgiving soup, so adjust it to your preferences
