Since it’s cold outside, I’m thinking of warm things I can eat. This sounds good.

Bacon Corn Chowder

6 bacon strips
3/4 c. diced celery
1 sm. diced onion
1 c. diced raw potato
1 thinly sliced carrot
1 c. water
1 can creamed corn
1 c. milk
1/2 tsp. seasoned salt
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/8 tsp. pepper

In a heavy saucepan cook bacon, celery and onion over medium for 10 to 15 minutes. Remove bacon and drain off fat. Add water, potato, and carrot. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes until potato and carrots are tender. Stir in creamed corn, milk, and seasonings. Heat do not boil. Yield: 4 servings.
