Corn, Cheese and Chili Soup image

Truly the best soup I ever tasted. It's quick and easy and always turns out great. It's an adaptation of a recipe from a James McNair cookbook I found years ago and have been making it ever since. As you probably already know, if you like cheese soup to be as smooth as possible use processed cheese like Velveeta. Adding 1 cup of milk makes a richer soup, but it could be omitted and would still taste great.

This soup was a disaster! It was watery and bland, and the cheese never melted properly.

This soup was just okay. It was a little bland for my taste, and the cheese didn't melt very well. I probably won't make this again.
