Author: Tag Sale Tastes
Ingredients
  • 4 carrots, cut into ¼" dice
  • 1 large potato, cut into ¼" dice
  • 4 ounces slab bacon, cut into ¼" dice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 3 cups frozen or canned corn
Instructions
  1. Fill a medium stockpot half full with water, add two teaspoons salt, and bring to a boil over high heat. Add carrots and potatoes, reduce heat, and simmer uncovered until tender but not mushy, approximately 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  2. Place bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat and cook until crispy. Using a slotted spoon, remove bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Add olive oil and onions to bacon drippings in pan and saute onions until translucent, approximately 10 minutes. Add maple syrup and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in bacon, potatoes, carrots, and corn, season to taste with salt and pepper, and continue cooking until heated through.
