"One of the ladies in our church quilting group brought this savory potato soup to a meeting," recalls Anna Mayer from Ft. Branch, Indiana. It's easy to assemble in the morning, then cook all day. Cream cheese and a sprinkling of bacon provide richness.

This chowder was amazing, my roommates and i loved it. I added a bay leaf and some basil to kick up the flavor.

I made this recipe yesterday for an evening meeting at work. I brought in all of the ingredients and let it sit in the slow cooker all day. By the time work was finished and the meeting was about to begin, dinner was all ready! I did, however, leave the slow cooker on high most of the day (about 6 hours) just to be sure it would be ready because I doubled the recipe. Yum yum soup!

this is one of our family favorites and it is easy to add in corn or ham. whatever your family fancies. we absolutely love it . you can also cut the cook time by softening the potatoes by boiling them then adding them to soup.
