I'VE SERVED this chowder for so many years that I don't remember where I got the recipe. It's one of my husband's favorite meals. It serves the two of us generously. If there's some left over, I freeze it for another time. -Joan Baskin, Black Creek, British Columbia

I thought this was delicious, but I did make a few changes. I cooked the diced bacon on its own until crisp, then removed it from the pan and cooked the celery and onions in the rendered bacon grease. The potatoes I cooked in a cup of chicken stock in a separate pan while the onions and celery cooked down, then added the cooked potatoes to the main pot and continued as directed. I also added an extra cup of frozen sweet corn, for more corn flavor, and served with a sprinkling of the bacon. This way the bacon stays crisp and packs more of a flavor punch.

I feel sorry for the husband who said it was the best meal he had had in a long time., Bless his heart, he needs to definitely get out more often because this receipe and all of the receipes for the creamy potatoes are so lame it is pitiful. I ahve been cooking since I was 100 and I could do better than that by the time I was 12. Feel sorry for those of you who think this is so wonderful.What would you do if you ever had something really good to eat??????
