Easy Corn Chower for Camping


Many of the ingredients in this tasty soup can be purchased on a salad bar.  I used fresh sweet corn but you can use frozen or canned.  Fresh is the most flavorful!


Easy Corn Chowder in the Slow Cooker

1 can of condensed cream of potato soup
1/2 cup diced chopped bell peppers (green, yellow, or red)
1/3 cup diced onions
2 tablespoons real bacon bits
1 teaspoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil (if you use garlic flavored, omit the garlic above)
1 cup of fresh or frozen sweet corn
1 cup milk
1 3oz package of cream cheese, cubed
Fresh ground pepper to taste


In a small crockpot heat the olive oil on the low setting, add the veggies, and cook until they are tender - about an hour.  Add in the remaining ingredients and warm for about another 40 minutes.  Stir to make sure everything is mixed.
