This is very tasty. I left out bacon to keep salt/fat down and cheated with frozen veggies. This is not a thick as a chowder, but is a very nice soup. It's a keeper/

This was a good recipe, I have made one similiar but using potatoes so it was nice to cut the carbs. I didn't use the bacon. Next time though I think I will go back to using my ol standby evaporated milk in place of the ff half and half , just a personal preference I think the fake half and half adds a little more sweetness I could do without. I ended up sauteeing some of the vegetables and then throwing it all in the crockpot
