Suzi's Corn Chowder
4 cups frozen sweet corn
3 medium potatoes, diced
1 onion, chopped
3 1/2 cups water
7 chicken boullion cubes
1/2 tsp pepper
3 1/2 cups milk
3 TB flour
6 TB butter
Depending on how good the corn is, sometimes I use a tsp or so of sugar.
sprinkle of salt? (I don't use it, DH does)
Add frozen corn, potatoes, onions, water, boullion, and pepper to pot. Bring to boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer 10 min or til potatoes are tender.
Stir in 2 cups of the milk and the butter. Combine remaining milk and the flour, then add to corn mixture. Cook and stir 'til thickened and bubbly, cook 1 minute more. Enjoy!
Very easy, and I use 1% milk so its very easy on the waist! http://www.discusscooking.com/forums/images/smilies/chef.gif
Then I changed it a little a few weeks ago....
I browned 1/2 lb of chopped bacon.... removed it, cooked up 2 diced chicken breasts in the bacon grease... removed that.... dumped and wiped out the pot o grease....
went on with soup as originally posted except I used 9 bullion cubes, 4 cups water, 4 cups milk, and I threw in a tsp or so or dried thyme.
I added the chicken and bacon in with the milk to warm up.
And I didn't mess it up one bit!!!
