It is that time of the year, when the grill gets put away and your crock pot gets put to good use for some comfort food :) Here is a recipe that inspired me after eating scalloped potatoes this weekend ;)
1 cup frozen peas
1 1/2 cup chopped ham
2 cups chopped potatoes
1/4 cup chopped bacon
1/2 chopped onion
2 TBLS finely chopped chives
2 TBLS flour
1/2 cup of chicken broth
1 cup of heavy whipping cream
1 /2 cup Swiss cheese
1/2 cup grated griar or Romano cheese
Cook the bacon and onion in a pot, remove grease. Add the potatoes with ham and cook for 3 minutes. Add the chicken broth, heavy whipping cream, and chives. Simmer for 10 minutes. Then add the peas cook for 5 minutes. Add the flour and whisk so there are not any clumps, then add the cheese and mix well. Let stand for 5 minutes. Walla you have a very hearty soup. You may also top it with croutons :)
