32 ounces of low sodium vegetable broth

and 2 handfuls of chedder cheese

I garnished mine and the kids soup with fresh avocado

In a large saucepan dice up bacon and start cooking in dutch oven. When bacon crisps up add onion powder and stir. Add butter and mix. When melted add 2 tablespoon of whole wheat flour, coating bacon and onion powder. Add broth bring to a boil and whisk until smooth. Reduce heat add potatoes and cream of celery and simmer for about 20 mins...till potatoes are tender. Add corn, and creamed corn, add the milk. Cook for 5 mins. Remove from heat and stir in cheese. Season as see fit with salt and pepper. I garnished mine with diced up fresh avocado....and enjoy
