Corn & Potato Chowder & Cheddar Onion Biscuits

This was a killer lunch. But I'm not in the mood to give you a blow by blow recipe. Is that wrong? It happens to be that particular week of the month where I suddenly have chronic fatigue, I eat like a wild animal, & I have noise allergies. Too much information, I know... Anyway, I'm just not in the mood. But you need to try it. So I'll give you a quickie:

Throw some chopped onions & garlic in a pot.

Chop up a few slices of bacon & cook in a separate small pan. Drain off fat and set aside.

Peel & chop a biggish potato, put it in a bowl with some water & cook in microwave till mostly cooked, then add to onions & garlic.

Pour in a cup or so of chicken stock & cook until potatoes are tender. Then add 2 cups of milk, a cup or so of cooked corn, salt & pepper.

Let this cook for a few and then scoop about half into a blender and puree. Pour back into pot & add the bacon, some chopped parsley & some parmesan cheese.

For the biscuits:

Combine

1 1/2 C flour

1 C. Cornmeal

2 1/2 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. salt (I used part salt/part garlic salt)

2 tsp. sugar

Cut in a stick of butter

Add 1 Cup + 1 Tbs. buttermilk (Whoever has buttermilk, I know?! Just add some vinegar to milk till its thick)

Stir in some grated cheddar & chopped onion.

Spoon onto baking sheet & bake @ 375 for 20 minutes.

Ok, there you have it. Enjoy!
