One of my good friends gave me this recipe and it is so yummy I decided to pass it on too! It's simple, yet delicious! I made a few tweaks of my own. Its good served with warm breadsticks!

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 cup onion, chopped
1/2 cup celery, chopped
1/2 cup sweet red pepper, chopped
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup flour
1 (1 ounce) envelope ranch dressing mix
4 1/4 cups milk
2 cups frozen sweet corn
2 cups frozen cubed hash brown potatoes, thawed
2 cups cooked ham, cubed
1/4 teaspoon thyme
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4-1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 dash pepper
2 ounces gouda cheese

Steps:

  • In a large pan, saute the onion, celery and pepper in the butter until the veggies are crisp-tender.
  • Stir in flour and ranch dressing mix until smooth. Gradually stir in milk.
  • Bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.
  • Add the corn, potatoes, ham and spices. Bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 8-10 minutes, or until heated through.
  • Sprinkle with cheese before serving. I actually use shredded swiss cheese in my soup, personal preference! And the more the better!
