My oldest son is vegetarian;the soup is my own makings. I started making this soup for his trips back home; he lives in London. I make this the day before he comes in, after our trip home from airport. We unwind eating this soup, munching on blue tortilla chips, humus and play catch up. My 8 year old grandchild was raised eating this soup; she asks for it often.
 
Ingredients
dash olive oil for sauteing 1 onion chopped
1 bell pepper chopped 3 or 4 garlic cloves chopped fine
1 cup frozen corn 1 can garbonza (chick peas) drained and rinsed
1 can Rotel Brand tomatoes or whole tomatoes with 1 small can green chilies 1 large can whole tomatoes juice and all
salt and pepper to taste chili powder
paprika crushed red pepper flakes (very little)
cumin  
 
Directions
Saute the onion, bell pepper and garlic in olive oil. Add the seasonings while sauteing, leaving the cumin until last. Saute for about 5 to 6 minutes watching not to burn veggies.

Add the corn and beans and saute another 10 minutes. Add the Rotel and whole tomatoes squishing them a little. Add a can of water and simmer for another 30 minutes or until thicker. Remove from heat and add cumin.

I serve this with fresh lime, sour cream and avocado pieces. Yummy! It's good for the soul. A nice green salad with spinach greens, sprouts and walnuts go well with this dish.
