Easy creamy clam chowder that can be ready to eat in about an hour.
Ingredients
- 6 pieces bacon (cut into pieces)
- 1/2 Medium onion (chopped)
- 7 cups potato (chopped into bite size pieces)
- 4 cans chopped clam (6.5 ounce cans - drain clams and reserve juice)
- 3 cans cream of celery (10.5 ounce cans)
- 2 cups milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 can corn with juice
- 2 teaspoons dried dill weed (fresh dill can be used)
- 1 teaspoon dried parsely
- 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
Note
- Half-n-half can be substituted for the milk and cream combo.
- If you don't have 3 cans of celery soup, use two. The soup will just be a bit more 'loose'.
