Better Homes and Gardens Old Corn Chowder Recipe?

I had an old, old version of the Better Homes and Gardens white and red checkered cookbook. I used to make an old Corn Chowder Recipe. Any one have it? or know where to get it? We're talking 50's or 60's. I can recall some of the ingredients: Brown Onions and bacon, add cubed potatoes and water. Corn, milk, bay leaf, can't remember anything else. I adapted it by putting in pieces of cooked chicken breast meat and tomato paste. Any one????

Answer:

In my edition from the mid 60s I find Supper Corn Chowder 5 slices bacon 1 medium onion, thinly sliced and separated in rings 2 cups cooked or canned whole kernel corn 1 cup diced cooked potatoes 1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup 2 1/2 cups milk 1 teaspoon salt Cook bacon till crisp in large sauce pan. Remove bacon; pour off drippings. returning 3 tablespoons to pan. Add onion and cook till lightly browned. Add remaining ingredients and dash pepper. Heat to boiling reduce heat and simmer a minute or two. Top each serving with crumbled bacon and butter. Makes 6 servings.
