Super Bowl Food- Crockpot Chicken Potato Corn Chowder
This by far is one of the yummiest crockpot soups/chowders I’ve made! I found this recipe on Two Healthy Kitchens and made a few tweaks of my own.
This is a hearty yummy soup!
Adding bacon to creamy corn potato chowder
The recipe says to throw everything into the crockpot and to use bacon bits but I sautéed 4 slices of bacon and half of the frozen onions to get that yummy bacon onion flavor.
I also used fresh parsley and some fresh thyme. Using fresh herbs brings out a brightness to any dish. I love using fresh herbs when I cook just about anything.
There is no cream or cheese in this soup and yet it is so creamy and rich! I did make an amazing creamed vegetable soup the other day they everyone raved about here.

Yes to bacon, it just makes everything better. I love a good crock pot soup recipe.
This sounds so good…Hubby is thinking about making it this weekend, but he does not like creamed corn (yeah, I know). He will maybe add another cream soup…thoughts? Also wondering about freezing leftovers?
Thanks a bunch,

Hi Carol,
I haven’t tried any other creamy soup with it and there is never any leftovers to freeze. I think it might get mushy if you freeze it. Maybe try zucchini in it?
Let me know how it turns out.
