These Corn Fritters are made with fresh corn, cornmeal, cheddar, green bell pepper and fried until golden. This easy appetizer is the best way to enjoy corn this season!

Sweet corn is a staple around here. If I don’t make these corn cakes, I use it to make my Fresh Corn Salad, Sweet Corn Casserole or Instant Pot Corn Chowder. They are all easy and delicious!

For us Kansans, corn is a very common ingredient in the kitchen. One of my favorite ways to enjoy fresh corn right off the cob is to turn it into these fritters. They are quick to whip up and absolutely delicious! I played with the basic recipe for a fritter and added ingredients that in my opinion make them the best. These fried cakes are a huge hit with my family and always disappear fast!

Potato Ham Chowder

Potato Ham Chowder – creamy and flavorful soup made with potatoes, corn and leftover ham. Serve it with garlic bread or biscuits.

This soup is a perfect way to use leftover ham, just like my Ham Casserole and the Instant Pot Ham and Beans.

When you are craving comfort food in a bowl, chowder always comes to mind. Especially one filled with potatoes, corn and ham. I used leftovers from my holiday ham in this soup and it was absolutely perfect! The chowder is very simple to make and flavorful, thanks to sauteing garlic and onion with Italian seasoning, oregano and thyme. It creates a perfect base for this dish. We love it with biscuits, focaccia or garlic bread.
