CORN AND BACON CHOWDER will become your go to recipe! This is full of flavor! This is oozing with corn, bacon, potatoes and creamy sauce. Do I need to say more?
I love soup! For me, it doesn’t matter if it’s cold outside or hot, I love me some soup! I will admit that it is completely a comfort food in the Winter.
My favorite soups are the creamy soups in any form, in fact, I haven’t come across a soup that I didn’t love. It’s a perfect solution for a weeknight dinner or if you have a big crowd for the holidays. It will not disappoint!
Shayna requested this for her birthday dinner. We had two different soups and I was convinced that we would have leftovers but, there wasn’t any soup left after the celebration. There are so many different layers of flavor that it will delight your tastebuds, and satisfy your appetite.

Oh wow, this looks so yummy. I miss the cold days where I can enjoy a good bowl of soup. I live down south and it’s way to hot to be able to make soups through the year. But as soon as the temps drop down to 70 I start cooking 🙂
soup is the best!
