8 c frozen corn, thawed
1 whole yellow onion, diced
1 T chili powder
1 t sea salt
4 c water
¼ c nutritional yeast

Scoop out 1/3 of the mixture and set aside. Add water to the pot. Bring to a boil and reduce to simmer for 20 min.

Divide the soup into bowls and garnish with the remaining corn mixture, cilantro, and additional chili powder (optional).
TIP
Add more toppings like crispy onions, lime zest, vegan feta. Avocado slices (PS only), or more nutritional yeast.
