List of Ingredients
1 med onion diced
1 med bell pepper diced
6 med potatoes peeled and diced
1/2 lb bacon thinly sliced
1 jar dryed beef
1 tsp pepper or to your liking
1 can whole kernel corn (15 oz.)
2 can cream style corn (15 oz size)
1 qt 1/2 and 1/2 or milk
1 cup water Recipe
Saute onion, bell pepper. Saute potatoes until they start to get a little color, set aside.
Take the pre-sliced slab of bacon and slice it into 1/2 inch lengths,put it in large pan and fry, it falls a part as it cooks,fry till crisp, When the bacon is crisp, add the dryed beef (if I can't find the beef I use a whole pound of the bacon ). Drain about 1/2 of the fat off and discard.
In the same pan add the saute onion, bell pepper, and the potatoes, cover with the 1 cup of water and simmer till tender (about 15 min.). At this point add 1can whole corn, 2 cans of creamed corn,and 1 quart of 1/2 and 1/2 or milk to thin the soup to your liking. If you like it thick don't use all of the milk or 1/2 and 1/2. Heat through and serve....
Soups with cream or milk in them are best if they are not allowed to boil so be careful.
Note: This is one of those recipes that can be changed to fit your family's liking. But is a good one to start with.
