Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 cups Almond Breeze Unsweetened Original OR any Almond Breeze Almond-Cashew Blend
6 ears fresh corn
1 russet potato, peeled and chopped
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
6 slices bacon
Basil leaves for garnish

Steps:

  • Shuck the corn. Break each ear in half. Standing each one vertically on a cutting board, use a serrated knife to cut off the kernels. Save the cobs.
  • In a pot, combine the corn, cobs, potato, almond milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and some freshly ground pepper. Simmer until the potatoes are soft (there's a big range for exactly how long this will be - once the pot is boiling, figure somewhere around 10 minutes and taste 'em as you go.) Remove and discard the corn cobs. Transfer the soup to a blender and puree. Strain back into the pot. Taste for salt, adding more if needed.
  • While the soup is simmering, cook the bacon until crispy in a hot frying pan or a 400 degrees F oven. Cut each slice in half. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish each with 3 half slices of bacon and basil leaves.

WEIGHT WATCHERS CREAMY CORN, POTATO, AND BACON SOUP



Weight Watchers Creamy Corn, Potato, and Bacon Soup image

I must confess, I didn't follow this recipe like a low-fat recipe, but I did enjoy this very much. Instead of olive oil I used butter, and I used regular thick-sliced pepper bacon instead of turkey bacon. I added regular corn and creamed corn (I wound up doubling the amount listed), and I used regular half and half instead of fat-free. Instead of low-fat chicken broth I used my own homemade broth from the freezer, and I skipped pureeing the soup and just put the cooked bacon in with the other ingredients. Finally, I doubled the amount of bell peppers and used red potatoes with the skin left on them. I'm usually impressed with Weight Watcher's low-fat recipes so my guess is you can enjoy it either way.
