Bacon Corn Sweet Chowder

Hearty Bacon Corn Sweet Chowder with sweet corn, potatoes, and bacon and half and half for a delightfully creamy soup. Serve with fresh Parker House Rolls (#5965 or #1136).

What is the best corn to use?

Fresh corn off the cob is ideal during the summer months, but for those long winter months without a garden, we suggest Flav-R-Pac Sweet Corn (#1090). It is picked at the peak of freshness then flash-frozen to lock in sweet flavor, color, and texture. Karen Sanders shared, “I love this corn! No more cutting corn off the cob for me. It tastes just like you froze it yourself. And so convenient, you just take and prepare what you need. Whether you need 1 serving or 10!”
