            This rich, chunky chowder is extremely satisfying. Lean Canadian

            2 cup(s) potato(es), cut into 1/2-inch cubes 

            1 large carrot(s), diced

            1/2 cup(s) uncooked barley 

            1 piece(s) bay leaf 

            1/4 tsp dried thyme, crushed 

            1/4 tsp black pepper 

            4 oz Canadian-style bacon, cut into 1/4-inch pieces 

            1/2 cup(s) fat-free evaporated milk 

            2 oz fat-free half-and-half 

 
      Instructions

        In a slow cooker, combine potatoes, carrots, leek, garlic, broth, 

        barley, bay leaf, thyme, pepper and bacon; cover and cook on low for 6 

        hours.

 
 
        Stir in evaporated milk and half-and-half; heat through, uncovered, 

        about 10 minutes. Yields about 1 2/3 cups per serving.
