      Directions

      Put 2 cups of the corn and the milk into a blender or food processor, until smooth. Set aside.

      Heat the oil in a large soup pot over a medium-high heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, and zucchini and cook, stirring until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 2 cups of corn and the broth and bring to a boil. Add the pureed corn and tomatoes and cook until warmed through, but not boiling. Add the salt and season with pepper. Serve garnished with the basil ribbons.

        This recipe is really good!! My 2yr. old loved it. I added some cajun seasoning for a little kick. Will definitely make again.
