Today's menu item was corn chowder. After we were finished Alanna declared, "It looks just like the picture in the book!!" Whew! We seem to be on the right track now for matching the pictures LOL. Actually, this soup was really good and definitely hearty. We made a double recipe which serves 16 so we'd have plenty of leftovers and be able to share with Aunt Lori. We tweaked the recipe just slightly and here's what we came up with:
3 Cups Water
4 cups Frozen loose-pack shredded hash brown potatoes (we used Simply Potatoes)
4 medium carrots - peeled and diced
2 stalks celery - diced
2 10 3/4oz cans Condensed Cheese soup
1 15oz can cream style corn
1 small can corn
2 1/2 Cups Skim Milk
3 Cups diced cooked ham
Salt and Pepper to taste
Start by adding the water and vegetables (including hash browns) to a pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to Low, cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Add in remaining ingredients and heat until warm--do not bring to boil. Approximately 246 calories per serving.
