This hearty chowder can stand alone, or serve it with a sandwich for lunch or dinner.

Ingredients:

  • 2 medium red potatoes, diced
  • 1 carrot, sliced
  • 2 ribs celery, sliced
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 cup hot water
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 4 tablespoons flour
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 can (15 to 16 ounces) cream-style corn
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • dash Tabasco sauce or ground hot pepper, optional

Preparation:

In a medium saucepan, combine potatoes, carrot, celery, and onion; cover with the water and chicken broth and stir in salt. Cover and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Set aside; do not drain.

In another saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat; stir in flour until hot and bubbly. Gradually add the milk, stirring, until thickened. Add cheese and stir until melted and well blended. Add corn and the cooked vegetables with their liquid, and add salt and pepper to taste. Stir in Tabasco or cayenne, if using. Heat through.
Serves 6.
