Fennel and Sweet Corn Soup
A super quick and easy soup that the family will love, with or without the bread to dip! Sort of Asian flavours, and plenty of protein with the egg!
We are happy to report that soup season in here. We have nearly 200 soup recipes and counting on this site so dive deep my lovelies. There is something for everyone! We promise.
This is one of Bree's family recipes and so we finally entered it for you all to enjoy. A classic egg drop soup probably doesn't include fennel but we love how this bulks it up a bit and makes it go further. You could also add chicken if you wish.
Fresh corn is probably one of my favourite veggies and although we also use tinned corn in this recipe, the fresh kernels do trick you into thinking the whole thing is made with fresh corn.
BENEFITS:
Corn is a versatile crop rich in fibre, aiding digestion and promoting gut health. It's packed with essential vitamins and antioxidants that boost the immune system and support eye health. Additionally, corn provides a good source of complex carbohydrates for sustained energy.
