This soup is one of my family's favorites. It's chock-full of potatoes, ham and carrots. I like to make this comforting soup at least once or twice a month during the fall and winter.—Jennifer Trenhaile, Emerson, Nebraska

Adding this to our list of favourite family meals! I made the chowder ahead of dinner time and wasn't able to hold off eating it. Sooooo unbelievably tasty!! Thanks for the share:)

My whole family loves this chowder. I make it every time we have leftover ham. It is well worth the effort.

This recipe is fabulous as written but still not simple enough for my teenagers to prepare without complaints. When it is their turn to cook we usually use three cans of cubed potatoes and skip the fresh ones. We usually use matchstick carrots so we don't have to chop. IF we use bacon we use real bacon pieces (such as Hormel) like you can find in the salad section of the store. We usually saute the carrot and onion in olive oil since I don't have bacon grease to use. Because I use canned potatoes I only heat it through before I add the ham and cheese. The whole family loves this recipe and it is not unusual to make a double recipe so that we can enjoy it as leftovers.

I make this a few times a year, and love it! I usually omit the corn, and instead of bouillon I always use 2 cups of milk and 2 1/2 cups of chicken broth. So delicious!
