Corn Chowder

Corn chowder is one of our favorite meals-I even make it in the summer. Since it's cooled down quite a bit I thought it would be perfect for dinner tonight. Here's the recipe for anyone looking for a good fall soup.

Ingredients

Bacon
1 onion diced (I skip this because Jared hates onion)
2 cloves garlic
1/4 cup flour
6 cups chicken broth or stock
2 cups heavy cream
3 potatoes diced
1 bag frozen corn
Shredded cheddar cheese
Salt and pepper to taste

Fry bacon and save some of the grease to fry the onion and garlic in until tender. Add chicken broth and bring to a boil. Dust potatoes with the flour and coat well. Add the potatoes and the cream and bring to a boil for 7 minutes. Add corn, salt and pepper and simmer for 10-12 mintues. Garnish with bacon and cheddar cheese.

This recipe usually is enough for dinner and then lunch for both Jared and me the next day. It's soooo good.
