Note
Variations: Try using wild rice for a nuttier flavor and chewier texture. You can also substitute cream of corn soup for a sweeter profile.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of water if the soup thickens too much.
Tip: For extra flavor, consider adding diced onions or celery when sautéing the SPAM.
