From Taste Of Home's Quick Coking Annual 2001, pg 16 This soup is one of my family's favorites. It's chock-full of potatoes, ham and carrots. I like to make this comforting soup at least once or twice a month during the fall and winter.—Jennifer Trenhaile, Emerson, Nebraska

In a Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium heat until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, remove to paper towels to drain. In the drippings, saute onion and carrots until tender. Stir in flour until blended. Gradually add milk and water. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Add the potatoes, corn, bouillon and pepper. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Add cheese and ham; heat until cheese is melted. Stir in bacon.
