Kritter, You were asking about recipes, and one of my family's favorite fall meals is my potato chowder. Actually it's my sister's recipe, but since I make it for my family, I call it mine! I triple the recipe and make a huge pot of it and we literally eat it for days....it's that good. We don't get sick of it, and we're sad when it's gone. Now I know some of the ingredients sound strange, but believe me, it's worth trying if you guys like potato soup.
8 slices of bacon, cooked & chopped -OR- 1 cup cubed ham*
3 cups potatoes, peeled & cubed (about 1 1/4 lbs.)
1 can (13 1/2 oz.) chicken broth
1 10 oz. package frozen corn thawed & drained (I usually use 1/2 can, drained)
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup sliced celery (Dh doesn't like celery pieces in soup, so I sub 1 can cream of celery soup....add it to milk mixture)
2 tbs. flour
1/2 cup miracle whip salad dressing
2 cups milk
1 tbs. worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 cups colby jack cheese
In large pot combine potatoes, broth, corn, onion & celery. Bring to boil. Cover and reduce to simmer until potatoes are tender. Mix flour and miracle whip together, then stir in milk, wocestershire sauce, garlic salt & pepper. Add milk mixture to potatoes, stir well. Continue to simmer (covered) 10 min. or until thickened. Just before serving, add bacon and cheese, stir.
*If using ham, you can add it when you add the potatoes, corn and broth
We like to garnish the individual bowls with croutons, cheese, and additional bacon bits. It's better than any restaurant soup!
