Ingredients

  • 4 cans of cream of potato soup
  • 5 medium potatoes washed, peeled, and cubed
  • 1 cup of Velveeta cheese cubed
  • 2 cans of creamed corn
  • ½ pound of thick cut bacon
  • 3 cups of milk
  • 1 cup of water
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ½ cup of sour cream optional

Instructions

  • In a large pot, add your water and cubed potatoes. Cook on low for 10-12 minutes until the potatoes have started to soften.
  • Add the cream of potato soup and milk and stir well.
  • Now, pour in the creamed corn (you can also use kernel corn if you wish for a chunkier chowder) and cheese cubes. Velveeta is suggested since it melt nice and smooth but you can uses shredded cheese varieties if you wish.
  • While your mixture cooks on low heat, fry the bacon in a separate frying pan. Cook it until it is crisp and then let it drain on a piece of paper towel.
  • Once it is cool crush the bacon into crumbles. Add all but 2-3 tablespoons of the crumbles to the mixture.
  • Your chowder is done when the mixture is mixed well, heated throughout, and the potatoes are fully softened. Now, add the optional dollop of sour cream and top with a sprinkling of bacon crumbles. Season the chowder with salt and pepper if you wish.
