Baby its cold outside and a good bowl of soup is just the answer. This corn chowder can be made ahead. It is also a good recipe to freeze. And... it is a recipe you can change up with just adding a few ingredients. For instance a can of crab meat - backfin - is delicious, or some grilled chicken, my personal favorite is grilled salmon. Serve with a simple salad and a few rolls and you have a wonderful meal.
5 slices of bacon, chopped up
1 large onion, diced
4 potatoes, diced
1 cup water
2 10 ounce packages of frozen corn
3 cups milk
2 teaspoons sugar
