Add red peppers, and jalapenos.  Cook for 5 to 10 minutes. 
Stir in corn and mix together well.  Add stock and bring to a boil.  Cook gently for 5 minutes.  Stir in spinach and cook for 5 minutes longer, just until wilted.  Add pepper, salt, if desired and basil.  Taste and adjust seasonings, if necessary.

NOTES : Original recipe calls for 1 teaspoon of olive oil for frying the garlic and onion.  I substituted the chicken broth.
