Ingredients:

1 medium onion, chopped (about 1 cup)
1/2 green bell pepper, chopped (about 1 cup)
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 medium-size baking potatoes, peeled and cubed (about 3 cups)
4 cups chicken broth
1 (16-oz.) package frozen whole kernel corn
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 (10-oz.) can diced tomatoes and green chiles

5. *3 cups frozen country-style hash browns may be substituted.
