Tips and Tricks
- You can use any corn you have on hand such as fresh, frozen or canned. If you don’t have homegrown corn that has been frozen I love using frozen fire roasted corn. Especially this one from trader joes.
- This soup is a great way to use up some of those potatoes rotting in the back of you veggie drawer. You can add whatever other veggies that need to be used up as well. If you don’t have any potatoes on hand I love using my home canned potatoes.
- I love a creamy chowder and this one definitely delivers but you can make it less fattening by using half and half or whole milk. You can also take it up a notch by adding 4-8 ounces of cream cheese to make it extra creamy!
