1/4 lb bacon
1 onion

(fry these two things in a pan, then drain off fat and return to the pan)

2 cans minced clams drained (reserve liquid)
1 cup diced potatoes
1/2 tsp salt
dash of pepper

(add enough water to the clam liquid to make 1 cup. add the above ingredients to the pan. heat to boiling. cover and boil until the potato is done - about 15 minutes)

1 cup milk
1 cup half and half

(add the dairy to the soup. heat, stirring occasionally, until hot. do not allow to boil.)

serves four

This was my go-to soup recipe until I converted to Judaism. fast, easy and always a pleaser. Sometimes I’d add a little instant potato flakes to make it thicker. This soup, with a nice, crusty bread, is a real winner.
