Found this in the newspaper a couple of weeks ago and made it this weekend - yummy

1 medium onion, peeled and chopped
1-1/2 pds boiling potatoes scrubbed, peeled if desired and cut into 1-2 inch cubes
1/8 teaspoon dried thyme, crumbled
2 cups fat free-lower sodium chicken broth
salt
fresh ground black pepper
1 rib celery, chopped fine
1 can (15 ounces) cream-style corn
1 cup 1 percent milk
1/2 cup minced fresh parsley leaves


Cook bacon in a 4-5 qt non-stick saucepan over medium heat, stirring until crisp, transfer to paper towels to drain

In the remaining fat, cook onion over medium heat, stirring, until softened. about 4-5 minutes. Add potatoes and thyme, toss potatoes to coat them with fat. Add chicken broth; salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes or until potatoes are just tender.

Add celery and corn and simmer, covered, for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in milk and parsley and heat chowder until it is hot, but do not let it boil.

Spoon into bowls and garnish with crumbled bacon. Serve immediately.
