I like this recipe as it is fairly low in fat except for the bacon and it’s full of fiber. Corn chowder is one of my favorite soup recipes especially in winter because it is filling and warming at the same time and making it in the CROCK-POT is simple.
Corn Chowder
6 slices lean short cut bacon, diced 1/2 cup finely chopped onion 2 cups diced peeled potatoes 2 pkts (10 oz each) frozen whole kernel corn (total 580g) 1 can (16oz or 420g) cream style corn 1 tbs sugar 1 tsp worcestershire sauce 1 tsp seasoned salt 1/4 tsp pepper 2 cups waterIn skillet fry bacon until crisp, remove and put aside. Add onion and potatoes to pan and saute for about 5 minutes, drain well. Combine all the ingredients in the CROCK-POT and stir well. Cover and cook on low for 5 hours. Ladle half of the soup into a medium size bowl (make sure to replace the lid on crock pot) and process until fairly smooth then add back into the crock pot. Stir, and add 1 - 2 cups vegetable stock until you get the consistency you like. I like it thick but still looking like a soup. Put the lid back on again and continue cooking for another hour. Serves 4.
