Mmm, corn chowder! Creamy, hearty, comforting. Making soup in a blender is super easy, and preserves all those delicious nutrients and phytochemicals. This vegan corn chowder is made creamy by avocado and unsweetened almond milk (you can substitute for other non-dairy milk if you have almond allergies). The rich flavors are rounded out with paprika, garlic, lemon and — believe it or not! — vanilla. Great as a side or as a main dish.

Remove husk and silk from the corn and rinse well. Cut corn kernels off the cob with a sharp knife into a large shallow bowl. Scrape cobs over the bowl to remove corn milk.
Reserve ½ cup of corn kernels to top soup with. In high-speed blender, puree together 3½ cups corn kernels with almond milk, garlic, lemon juice or lemon essential oil, smoked paprika, vanilla, avocado half*, sea salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Strain soup through a fine mesh strainer to have a smooth consistency. If you like the soup warm, continue to blend in your blender for a few minutes until the soup gets hot or place in saucepan and heat gently over low heat until warm. Taste and adjust seasoning. Place in bowl and top with corn kernels and red bell pepper.

If you want to heat up the soup in the blender, add the avocado at the end instead of with the other ingredients once the soup gets hot. You can also cube the remaining half of avocado and blend it with the topping that goes on the soup.
