Corn Chowder

Corn Chowder, loaded with tender potatoes, smoky bacon, and sweet corn, is the perfect creamy and comforting meal!

Corn chowder was always a family favorite growing up, and with so many people to please, that was a big deal!

Turns out, many of you love it too. Today, I’m swapping the chicken from the Chicken Corn Chowder for bacon, cooking it on the stovetop, and using a simple trick to boost the flavor. It’s the best corn chowder I’ve ever tasted and I can’t wait for you to try it!
