My family's take on chicken corn chowder. Use good quality thick bacon for the recipe, and go organic for as many ingredients as possible. Must use yukon gold or other smaller gold potatoes as they help thicken the soup. Use of other potatoes will not work. This is not a low fat/low calorie food, just a warning.

Sooo good and hearty! Made this soup for lunch today and it really hit the spot. Definitely rich and creamy and a nice change of pace. A side salad served with this soup makes a great lunch or dinner. Don't forget some crusty bread! Made for Spring PAC, March 2013.
