Feb 10, 2016 at 9:18 amThis looks so delicious! It reminds me of the Corn Chowder that Applebees used to serve! We like a little kick to our corn chowder, but this recipe looks phenomenal and it has bacon—who doesn’t love bacon!!

Feb 11, 2016 at 6:46 pmAmazing pictures! I will be making this without the bacon. I love corn and especially when it is in a hot soup. I’ve always wanted to make corn chowder and your recipe is easy to follow. I’ve made potato and leek soup, but never tried adding corn to that!

Feb 15, 2016 at 2:16 pmChowder is actually my favorite but I have never had it like this before. We do seafood chowder a lot and use cheese. I’d love to try it with corn and bacon, YUM!
