I have seriously been digging all soups with potato and corn lately. I don't know why really, but I just love the combination. It may be because of my old favorite dinner of ham steaks with mashed potatoes. Although I would usually fix peas with it, I do still love ham and potatoes together.
This soup is similar to a few others I have posted, but is just different enough for me to be absolutely positive that it needed to be posted!

What you need:
- 3 Tbsp. butter
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 carrots, diced
- 2 stalks celery, diced
- 2 cloves minced garlic

- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 1/2 cups potatoes, diced into 1-inch cubes (peeled, if you want)

- 1 can sweet corn, drained
- Salt and pepper to taste

- Add garlic, thyme, and flour. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until lightly browned.
- Add broth slowly, then add milk and potatoes.
- Bring to a boil. Then reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are fork tender, about 10 to 12 minutes.
