Ingredients:
1 medium onion, diced small
1/2 green pepper, diced small
2 tsp. water
3-4 potatoes, peeled and cut into bite size pieces
2 1/2 cups chicken broth
2 cups corn
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
2-4 Tbsp. real bacon bits

Directions:
In a soup pot saute the onion and green pepper in the water until onion and pepper are soft. Add the chicken broth and potaotes. Bring to a boil, cover partially and lower heat to a simmer and let simmer for about 10 minutes. Add the corn and continue simmering for 5 more minutes. Remove from heat. Take 2 cups of the soup and puree it in a blender. Add the puree back to the soup. Add the cream and bacon bits. Bring to a boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat and serve.

This is a slightly modified Weight Watchers recipe. One of my favorites!!
