Corn Chowder

 CORN CHOWDER



2 cups water ~ heat to boiling

ADD AND COOK 8-10 minutes

2-3 cups diced/peeled potatoes

1/2 cup sliced carrots

1/2 cup diced celery

1/4 cup chopped onions

1 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

MAKE WHITE SAUCE:

1/4 cup butter

1/4 cup flour

2 cups milk

ADD

3 cups (12 oz.) shredded Cheddar Cheese

ADD 

2 cans cream style corn (14.5 oz. each)

1/4 cup diced/cubed ham

Just a couple of notes.  Once you make the white sauce, and add the shredded Cheddar, add that to your pot of cooked veggies and then add the corn and ham, stir well and continue to keep on the stove until the corn and ham have had a chance to heat through.

Also, I did not use cream style corn because I have corn from our garden in the freezer, so I just used a quart bag of it.

We enjoy chowders and while this one wasn't yummy clam chowder that I enjoy when we go to Maine, it was still good.

    1. Thank you, Mari. I think chowder is something that one has to acquire a taste for, so I understand that not everyone enjoys it like we do. xx
