This was good, but we couldn't really taste the corn in it. Next time I'll add more corn and use less potatoes. Otherwise it was very tasty. - 2/16/09

I made lots of changes to this recipe based on what I had in the kitchen. Canadian bacon, fresh corn, curry powder, olive oil: yes. Potatoes, carrots, milk, butter: no. Thank you for the ideas: very interesting. I would definitely make this [my way] again. - 8/21/10

This recipe was YUMMY! A big hit with my young kids & hubby. I made a couple of revisions, just based on what I had in the house. I used only 9 slices of turkey bacon. Started the bacon in the pot I was going to cook in. Used olive oil instead of butter, 1% milk and pureed the whole thing. - 4/5/09

I used diced up Canadian bacon rather than the turkey bacon and added a little more salt and pepper. Very good. - 7/28/08

This is really good and definitely comfort food. However, taste to see if you want to add the amount of pepper listed. It is a little hot for my family. I will make again but just reduce the amount of pepper. - 2/11/08
