Author:
Recipe type: Soup
Ingredients
  • 2 slices of bacon (about 2 oz total), chopped
  • 1 onion (8 oz) peeled and chopped
  • 1 Quart low-fat (1%) milk
  • 4 Cups cooked mashed potatoes
  • 3 Cups ½-inch chunks of cooked turkey
  • 2 cans (11 oz) corn, drained
  • 2 Tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • Salt to taste
Instructions
  1. In a 4- to 5-quart pan, over medium-high heat, cook your bacon until it’s just how you like it. We like ours crunchy.
  2. Throw in the onion and stir often until onion is limp (yes, you cook it in the bacon grease). About 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in milk, mashed potatoes, turkey, corn, cilantro and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring often.
  4. After about 10 minutes soup should be hot and slightly thickened. Add salt to taste.
  5. Serve immediately. You can garnish with extra bacon and cilantro.
