    I love this month, the climate is pleasant and as the year comes to an end, it’s time for some celebrations and parties. Winter calls for hot soups and crispy fries. Continuing with my Mexican Cuisine, today I present to you  Spicy Chipotle Chili Corn Soup. It’s delicious and guilt free. Believe me, I tried to do with less cream and it tastes equally good.

    Notes

    • More cream ( one more cup)  can be added to it. I have avoided using excess fat.
    • If the red bell pepper is not available, use the green one.
    • I have used frozen corn, hence, they cook quickly.
