    No one would guess that this hearty, chunky soup from our Test Kitchen is made with tofu and soy milk. Even folks who don’t have a problem with lactose will eat it up!

    Ingredients:
    • 2/3 cup fresh or frozen corn, thawed
    • 1/3 cup chopped onion
    • 1/4 cup chopped sweet red pepper
    • 1/4 cup chopped green pepper
    • 1 teaspoon canola oil
    • 1 medium red potato, diced
    • 2/3 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
    • 1/2 cup silken firm tofu
    • 1/2 cup soy milk
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
    • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

    Directions:
    1. In a small saucepan, saute the corn, onion and peppers in oil until onion is tender. Add potato and broth. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 8-10 minutes or until potato is tender.

    2. Process tofu in a blender until smooth. Gradually stir tofu and soy milk into soup. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper.
