1. 1Grab up your frying pan and cook up the three strips of bacon. When they're cooked up, pull them out, chop them up, and drain the bacon fat, reserving about a tablespoon. Turn your heat up to medium and add in your asparagus, onion, and garlic. Cook it up for 2 to 3 minutes.
2. 2Add in the corn and tomatoes.
3. 3Mix it together, give it a minute or two to warm up and then add in the broth, the chopped bacon and your spices; the old bay, cajun, lemon pepper, and salt and pepper to taste.
4. 4Let the whole kit and kaboodle heat up for a good five minutes and then add in your cream. And last but most definitely not least, grab up your shrimp and pop them into the pan. Give the whole pan a swirl or two and allow the soup a couple minutes to heat back up.
5. 5Serve with green onions sprinkled over the top.
