¼ cup  all-purpose flour
2 cans (14.5 ounces each)  reduced-sodium fat free chicken broth

RECIPE

  • In a large pot, cook bacon over medium-low, stirring occasionally, until crisp.  This is about 8 to 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to a plate lined with paper towels.
  • Increase heat to medium. Cook onion, stirring, until it begins to soften, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Add flour.  Cook, stirring constantly, about 30 seconds.
  • Whisk in the broth and potato. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer. Cook until potato is tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Add broccoli, corn, thyme, and milk. Cook until broccoli is crisp-tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Serve topped with bacon.
