Hearty homemade corn chowder.
Perfect for a cold winter night, problem was, that its been so warm around here, that I was jonesing for a chowder, glad I found this one!! I added a couple Bay leaves for some extra flavor. I warmed up some rolls and dinner was ready! Delish! Thank You Ruthannlacombe:)

I didn't use mushroom soup. Instead I thickened the soup with corn starch and water, mixed together, then added at the end. I used pre-cooked bacon bits. I also added about 1/2 tsp black pepper and several shakes of crushed red pepper. It was good!
I love this soup. I added thyme, used chicken stock instead of water and used cream of celery soup. I also didn't bother to buy half and half. Used all milk, still very good.
Excellent! I made one change and that was to not add the bacon back to the soup. If you've followed my reviews at all, you know that I HATE wobbly bacon. I went ahead and ate it after it had drained on the paper towel a few minutes but next time I will crumble it and serve it as a garnish. I actually liked this better prior to adding the milk/half and half. It was like a pot pie filling. Regardless, I will make this again with my tweaks. It DEF needs some salt and pepper but overall an excellent soup and super simple.
