Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 4 large jalapenos, minced
• 1 red onion, chopped
• 1 large bell pepper or poblano pepper, chopped
• 6 cups chicken broth
• 2 potatoes, cubed
• 16 ounces (1 bag) frozen corn (white or yellow)
• 2 - 3 cups cooked, shredded chicken
• 4 - 5 strips bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
• 2 cups cheddar cheese
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• fresh chopped parsley
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream

Recipe Notes

• You may be leery about adding four jalapenos, but trust me, the soup is not overly spicy at all. Add 'em! 

• If you use a poblano instead of a bell pepper, the soup will be spicier. 

• You could add a can of drained white beans to the soup for added fiber. Who doesn't need a little extra fiber in their diet? (Check out the importance of fiber.)

Here's how to make it:

1. Cook the jalapenos, onion and pepper in the olive oil until soft.
2. Add the chicken stock and potatoes. Cook until potatoes are tender.
3. Stir in the corn, cooked chicken, cooked bacon, cheddar cheese, cream cheese and a little parsley. Cook until cheese is melted.
4. Add the cream and slowly heat through. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
