Start Bacon.

Combine chicken broth, corn, onion, and potato. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 minutes or until potatoes are soft.

When bacon is done, add to soup. You don't need to drain the bacon very well or pat dry with a paper towel.

Add evaporated milk and Colby cheese cheese. Stir until cheese is melted.


*** Replace 1 can of evaporated milk with a package of cream cheese?
