Creamy Corn and Turkey Soup

We had this for Easter and just a cup is a nice start to a special meal.  My youngest loves cream corn and when I first made this a few years ago I knew it would become his favorite soup!  My Dad refuses to eat cream soups but had his cup and Easter and asked my Mom why she doesn't make it!!

1/2 cup chopped spanish onion
1 cup chopped red pepper
2 tbsp butter
1/2 package of 250 gram Philadelphia Cream Cheese - regular or light
1 can cream style corn
2 cups Knorr chicken bouillon broth
1 cup milk
2 cups shredded cooked turkey - if you buy a large skinless breast and bake in the oven for  1/2 hour at 350F, let cool and chop up you should have enough
1 bay leaf
Cook onion and peppers in butter in a large pot.  Add cream cheese and cook till melted.  Stir constantly.  Add corn, broth, milk and turkey and bayleaf.    Cook soup for about 1/2 hour on medium.  Makes 6 servings, 1 cup each.
