TEXAS COUNTRY CLUB CORN CHOWDER



Texas Country Club Corn Chowder image

The peppers in this soup give it just the right amount of spice, while the half & half and bacon give it just the right amount of richness. A creamy, comforting meal. The recipe is from Barton Creek Country Club in Austin, TX. I clipped it from the Austin-American Statesman many years ago.

THIS RECIPE has been a favorite in our family for years. Now that we have an empty nest, I took it upon myself to cut the recipe down to serve two so we can still enjoy it. The jalapeno adds a little zip and color! -Mildred Sherrer, Bay City , Texas

TEXAS CORN CHOWDER

This is quick and easy to make. Its very good and my picky eating daughters even love it, especially on a cold evening. We have it with either corn chips or corn bread. I use the low fat/low sodium soup and 1% milk and is just as tasty. This was given to me by a co-workers wife after he brought some to work and shared one day. Just as good re-heated.
