Corn Chowder Soup

Shauna makes a wonderful corn chowder soup so I am posting her recipe, she made it last night and it reminded me how yummy it was

Corn Chowder Soup
1/2 cup diced bacon
4 medium potatoes, peeled and chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cups chicken broth (Original recipe just called for water but most of the comments recommended using chicken broth so that is how I made it)
3 cups cream-style corn (I just used 2 regular cans of cream-style corn)
2 teaspoons salt
ground black pepper to taste
2 cups half-and-half

Place the bacon in a large pot over medium-high heat, and cook until crisp. Drain and crumble, reserving about 2 tablespoons drippings in the pot.
Mix potatoes and onion into the pot with the crumbled bacon and reserved drippings. Cook and stir 5 minutes. Pour in the chicken broth, and stir in corn. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and cover pot. Simmer 20 minutes, stirring frequently, until potatoes are tender.
Warm the half-and-half in a small saucepan until it bubbles. Remove from heat before it boils, and mix into the chowder just before serving.

It makes very yummy soup!  Enjoy!
