A Great Soup Recipe for the Chilly Weather

One great thing about the 

chilly fall weather

is that it makes cooking much more fun.

When we want to warm up with comfort food,

I adore this easy 

Corn Chowder Soup.

Here's the recipe . . .

Corn Chowder

{from michellelunt.com}

• 2 Tbsp. butter
• 1 cup finely chopped onion
• 1/2 cup chopped celery
• 3 large potatoes, peeled & finely chopped
• 4 cups chicken broth
• 2 cups frozen corn {I like white corn}
• 1/2 cup half & half
• 1 can cream of celery soup
• salt & freshly-ground pepper to taste
• pre-cooked bacon {garnishment}
• chives {garnishment}

Melt butter in a stock pot. Add onion, celery & potatoes. Saute' about 5 minutes. {Stir so it doesn't stick.} Add chicken broth & boil about 15-20 minutes or until potatoes are cooked. Add corn. cook 5 minutes more. Add half & half, soup, salt, & pepper. Garnish with crumbled bacon & chives.

Mmmm - it's so good!
