Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons butter
- 1 small onion diced
- 6 cups potatoes peeled and cubed
- 15.25 ounces sweet corn drained
- 2 teaspoons seasoning salt
- 1 teaspoons parsley
- 1 teaspoon ground pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 32 ounce chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 3 cups milk
- 2 cups colby or cheddar cheese shredded
- 1/2 cup swiss cheese shredded
- 6 strips bacon cooked and chopped
- 1/4 cup green onions chopped
- salt to taste
Instructions
- In a large pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté until softened, about 3–4 minutes.
- Add potatoes, corn, seasoning salt, parsley, pepper, garlic powder, and chicken broth to the pot. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes or until potatoes are fork-tender.
- In a small bowl, whisk milk and cornstarch until combined. Add to the pot and cook until soup starts to thicken (soup will also thicken as it cools).
- Stir in cheeses until melted. Remove from heat. Garnish with bacon and green onions. Enjoy!
Notes
Storage: Store any leftovers in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
If the soup is too thin, mix 1-2 teaspoons cornstarch with 1/4 cup milk and add to the soup when boiling on low before adding cheese. Also, use 2% or whole milk.
If the soup is too thick, add more milk to the desired consistency before adding cheese. Also, use skim or 1% milk.
*6 cups of diced potatoes equals approximately 6-8 whole potatoes.
