Directions

Pierce potato in several places with a fork; microwave on high power until tender, turning over once, about 8 minutes.

Allow to cool; peel and mash.

Meanwhile, coat a large saucepan with cooking spray.

Add celery, onion, corn and red pepper; sauté over medium-high heat for 5 minutes.

Stir bacon and milk into saucepan; stir in mashed potato and mix well.

Season with salt, pepper and hot pepper sauce; stir to combine.

Cover and simmer 10 minutes (do not allow to boil).

Yields about 1½ cups per serving.

Notes:

Feel free to substitute your favorite fresh vegetables like asparagus and broccoli for the red pepper.

Or to save time, substitute 2 cups of frozen corn and 1 cup of frozen, diced bell pepper for the fresh corn and red pepper.
