Very filling, tasty, and easy to make. For best results, buy a good, very smokey bacon from a butcher shop.

POTATO-BACON CHOWDER



Potato-Bacon Chowder image

A satisfying comfort food that can be jazzed-up with the same toppings you would put on a baked potato (cheese, green onions, bacon). This is a great soup for a pot-luck, because it is universally enjoyed by kids and adults. NOTE: The original version called for Half 'N Half, but I've found that milk works just fine.

2 tablespoons butter
