Chicken corn chowder
Chicken corn chowder. It's one of my family's favorite cold weather soups. My husband used to buy it in the cans but the kids kept eating them while he was at work. When six kids decide they like something it is time to find a recipe. The recipe below has been adapted from several recipes I have tried and tweaked with my own personal touches. The end result is a good hearty soup the entire family begs for.
