- 1 medium onion diced
- 2 celery ribs chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 1/2 pounds russet potatoes peeled and diced
- 2 cups cooked ham diced
- 2 cups corn kernels fresh or frozen

Instructions
- In a large pot, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon and set aside, leaving the fat in the pot.
