For the Kids Glazed Carrots and Corn

I make glazed carrots a lot, but when I tried adding corn my children ate a lot of it. These days, I add green beans or snow peas sometimes. The key is to simmer slowly over low heat. Cut the carrots into star shapes and to make this dish really cute. Recipe by Nayuho

Fluffy Egg Drop Soup with Corn & Onion

Fluffy Egg Drop Soup with Corn & Onion

I wanted to make a Chinese style soup to go with dinner one day, and I thought of onion and corn as good additions that would cook up quickly. My husband is not a huge fan of soup, but he eats this one right up, so I've been making it ever since. I can make it with ingredients I always have in stock, so it saves money too. By thickening the soup, the egg disperses nice and evenly. Another point to making the egg fluffy is to add a little water to it beforehand!! Also, turn the heat off right away to prevent the egg from becoming tough. For 2 servings. Recipe by Eisakun

Macaroni, Broccoli Corn Soup

I wanted to make an easy and nutritious soup that goes well with bread for breakfast or brunch. Adjust the milk and salt depending on the type of canned cream corn you use. It's also delicious with potatoes when stir frying the onions. The soup will nicely thicken as the dried macaroni is directly added to the pot without boiling them beforehand. Recipe by Kyarameri-na
