1 cup | finely chopped, yellow onion |
1 | rib celery, peeled and finely chopped (about ½ cup) |
3 cloves | garlic, peeled and minced |

Directions
In a large non-stick frying pan, over medium heat, fry bacon until done, set aside.
In a large soup pot, heat oil over medium-low heat. Add onion, celery, garlic and potato, cook and stir until vegetables are crisp-tender, about 10-12 minutes.
Add water, whisk in Ham and Vegetarian No Chicken Bases. Add bell pepper, corn, thyme and black pepper, stir to combine. Cover and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until potato is tender, stirring occasionally.
Remove soup from heat and puree soup with a hand held immersion blender or an electric blender. If using an electric blender, process in batches, cover blender container and blend until smooth.
Return blended soup to medium-low heat. Slowly stir in half-and-half. Cook and stir, until heated through.
