When the temperatures start to drop, and boy do they drop, nothing is better than curling up by the fire with a warm bowl of soup. Our southwest corn and bean soup is the perfect remedy to chilly temperatures. The recipe goes together very quickly, and the results are a delicious soup with a homemade taste. Chili powder and hot pepper sauce are the perfect accents to Randall Pinto Beans and corn. The heat from the chili powder and sauce will warm you up in no time. Green chilies are a nice compliment to the other flavors in the soup. Top your bowl of soup off with some sour cream and fresh cilantro for garnish. This leaves you with a tasty meal that will blow your winter blues away. So grab a bowl, cozy up to the fire and enjoy!
