Summer Corn, Bacon & Potato Chowder (lunch)

by Irene Lindvall


I have really been going full force with recipes this month and today is no exception with three new ones. This lunch dish was delicious with fresh corn and red peppers from the farmers market and turkey bacon instead of regular bacon. Not much to report other than maybe it was a little too warm of a day to have chowder. I think it'd make a delicious winter lunch even with frozen corn.

Things I learned from this recipe:

I didn't have enough milk for the recipe so I ended up using half-and-half to make up the difference. Many years ago I remember my father-in-law telling me he went to have cereal one morning and didn't have milk so he decided to use half-and-half instead. I laughed and was a little grossed out by the thought back then, but all these years later, I see the wisdom in it and I'm glad I remembered the story.

Would I make this recipe again?:

Sure
