Farmhouse Ham And Corn Chowder - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1/2 cup onion, chopped
    1/2 cup celery, chopped
    1/2 cup sweet red pepper, chopped
    2 tablespoons butter
    1/4 cup flour
    1 (1 ounce) envelope ranch dressing mix
    4 1/4 cups milk
    2 cups frozen sweet corn
    2 cups frozen cubed hash brown potatoes, thawed
    2 cups cooked ham, cubed
    1/4 teaspoon thyme
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    1 dash pepper
    2 ounces gouda cheese
Preparation
    In a large pan, saute the onion, celery and pepper in the butter until the veggies are crisp-tender.
    Stir in flour and ranch dressing mix until smooth. Gradually stir in milk.
    Bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.
    Add the corn, potatoes, ham and spices. Bring to a boil.
    Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 8-10 minutes, or until heated through.
    Sprinkle with cheese before serving. I actually use shredded swiss cheese in my soup, personal preference! And the more the better!
