HAM AND CORN CHOWDER



Ham and Corn Chowder image

My mother is an excellent cook who rarely follows a recipe exactly. My two sisters and I do the same thing, adding something here, omitting something there. With this soup, I sometimes leave out the bacon and butter, and have used canned corn and creamed corn with good results. We like to eat this soup with big soft hot pretzels instead of crackers. -Sharon Rose Brand, Stayton, Oregon
