Cheesy Corn Chowder

Believe it or not, this recipe came from Mark's high school librarian :) I use cheddar cheese instead of velveeta because its better for you. I also only use 1/2 onion.

Ingredients:
1 qt. Of potatoes, peeled and diced
1 chopped onion
½ cup celery chopped
2 cups water
2 cups evaporated milk
1 can cream corn
1 can whole corn
salt and pepper to taste
bacon bits
1/3 cup velveeta cheese
1/3 cup flour mixed with half of the evaporated milk

Directions: Cook potatoes, onions, and celery in the two cups water for about 10 minutes. Then add the corn. After these ingredients are cooked well, add the milk and cheese. Cook until mixed thoroughly and hot.
