#CheesyChowder

[drawlequin]

A hearty soup made in a slow cooker with ham, corn, potatoes, and cheese. It's comforting and filling.

Ingredients: 1 lb cooked ham, diced. 1 onion, chopped. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 2 cups frozen corn kernels. 4 cups chicken broth. 3 large potatoes, peeled and diced. 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese. 1 cup heavy cream. Salt and pepper to taste. Chopped parsley for garnish optional.

Instructions: In a slow cooker, combine diced ham, chopped onion, minced garlic, frozen corn kernels, diced potatoes, and chicken broth. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours, until potatoes are tender. Stir in shredded cheddar cheese and heavy cream until cheese is melted and chowder is creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley if desired.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Day191: Cheesy Chowder & Buttered Bread, ala Andrew Peterson’s Wingfeather Saga. My 10-year-old just finished the 4-book series, so we celebrated with a traditional “Igiby” meal. The soup is a family favorite from a friend, which of course I adapt to whatever’s in the house so long as it contains chicken, broth, milk, cheese, veggies (including a can of creamed corn — the only reason I ever buy this), and cilantro. I have also found this new carrot ginger miso salad dressing at Trader Joe’s that is fresh and light and 👊🏻 in the best way. Finally, buttered toasted bread (here Rye from Publix bakery) might as well be dessert around here.😏 #wingfeathersaga #cheesychowder #misosalad #its5oclockmom
