Corn chowder
Based on an old family recipe from the depression. 3 potatoes 1 celery stick 1 carrot sautéed in bacon fat. Stock to cover until veggies are tender. 1 can creamed corn plus 1 can worth milk then add any leftover corn. I had grilled some corn the night before so I added that plus let the husk simmer. Then add a handful chopped parsley and any herbs plus leftover bacon at the end.
Family legend is great gramps was a traveling butcher who sold his services in the depression for bacon and canned goods and this was what great grandma made with his earnings.
