Cook bacon in Dutch oven over medium-high heat 5–7 minutes, stirring until bacon is crisp. Drain all but 1 tablespoon fat. Add onion, carrots, jalapeños, garlic, chili powder, and cumin. Cook 3–5 minutes, stirring constantly until onion is tender. Reduce heat to medium. Add milk, broth, rice, and corn. Cook, stirring, 10–12 minutes until mixture boils. Cook 1 minute more; remove from heat. Ladle into bread rounds. Garnish with green onions.
Fun Fact: Bingham Canyon Mine, the world’s largest man-made excavation and first open-pit mine, is located twenty-eight miles southwest of Salt Lake City, Utah. The mine is two and one-half miles across, and three-quarters of a mile deep. In production since 1906, ore from the mine has yielded more than 17 million tons of copper, 23 million ounces of gold, and 190 million ounces of silver. Cumulatively, Bingham Canyon has produced more copper than any other mine in the United States, and is the second in the world after Chuquicamata in Chile.
