Traffic Light Soup

Sometimes I make up silly names for soups - hoping it will get my kids to eat a new food! This one worked out pretty well (although to be honest, my 4 yr old refused to even TRY it). So here is my recipe for red, yellow, and green soup!

Ok, so it's not the best picture, sorry! Anyhow - here goes:

Olive oil
2 onions, sliced
2 cloves garlic
1 red pepper, diced
1 green pepper, diced
1 coarsely chopped tomato
1.5 c. frozen corn
water or soup stock to fill the pot
salt, pepper, parsley to taste

Heat the olive oil in a pot, and cook (stirring) the onion, garlic, and peppers until the onion is soft and translucent. (The house should already smell amazing!) Add tomato, corn, and water/vegetable stock, stirring. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 10 - 15 min, until the corn is soft enough to puree. Partially puree the soup using an immersion blender. Season to taste , and serve hot.
