I love a good chowder and this delicious soup fit the bill. It’s hearty, filling, and perfect for a chilly fall day or night.





Cheesy Ham Chowder

10 slices bacon, diced
1 large onion, chopped
1 cup diced carrots
3 tablespoons all purpose flour
3 cups milk
1-1/2 cups water
2-1/2 cups potatoes, cubed
1 can (15-1/4 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained
2 teaspoons chicken bouillon cubes
Pepper to taste
3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
2 cups fully cooked ham

In a Dutch oven, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, remove  bacon to paper towels to drain. In the drippings, sauté onion and carrots until tender. Stir in flour until blended. Gradually add milk and water. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Add the potatoes, corn, bouillon, and pepper. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered for 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Add cheese and ham and heat until cheese is melted. Stir in bacon.
