Ingredients for Best Kept Secret Soup

  • 1 (15-ounce) can chili
  • Shoe Peg Corn
  • Vegetable Beef Soup
  • Tomato Soup
  • Tomatoes And Green Chilies
  • 1 (14.5-ounce) can stewed tomatoes (undrained)
  • 1 cup corn chips, crushed (plus extra for garnish, optional)

How to Make Best Kept Secret Soup

  1. Heat a large saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  2. Add 1 (15-ounce) can of chili, 1 (15-ounce) can of whole kernel corn (drained), 1 (10.75-ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup, 1 (10.75-ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup, 1 (10-ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chilies (undrained), and 1 (14.5-ounce) can stewed tomatoes (undrained) to the saucepan.
  3. Stir to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
  4. Bring the soup to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through and flavors have melded.
  5. While the soup simmers, crush about 1 cup of corn chips coarsely. (You can also leave some whole for texture.)
  6. To serve, place a generous layer of crushed corn chips in each bowl.
  7. Ladle the hot soup over the chips and serve immediately. Garnish with extra corn chips, shredded cheese, or a dollop of sour cream, if desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
