Slow Cooker Showcase – Corn Chowder

This week’s slow cooker showcase recipe is Corn Chowder by Mackenzie at The Centsible Family that is a New England classic and great for a chilly winter night!

I love that it’s a slow cooker recipe and also that it can be considered a stockpile recipe because the ingredients are basic and you probably have them all on hand right now!  And any time you are cooking from your stockpile, you’re saving money!

Ingredients

• 2 cans (16 oz) whole kernel corn, drained
• 2 to 3 medium potatoes, finely chopped
• 2 oz of heat and serve bacon
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 2 cups whole milk or half & half
• 1/4 cup butter or margarine

Directions:

• Combine first 5 ingredients in slow cooker and add pepper and/or salt to taste. Cover and cook on low for 7 to 9 hours.
• Stir in milk and butter; cover and cook on HIGH about 30 to 60 minutes longer.
