Directions
In large bowl, combine ground beef, ½ cup of the corn and remaining meatball ingredients; mix well. Shape into 1" balls; place on cookie sheet. Refrigerate 30 minutes, or until set.
In 5-quart Dutch oven or stockpot, combine remaining corn and all soup ingredients. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low; carefully add uncooked meatballs. Simmer uncovered 45 to 60 minutes or until flavors blend and meat is no longer pink. Garnish individual servings with toppings as desired.
