    Another 5 stars from me. This was delicious and easy to make. I used a combination of red, yellow, and green peppers (had on hand). I used 98% fat free chicken soup and 2% milk cheddar. Excellent. Thanks for a great recipe!

    This doesn't probably need another rating...however...it was too good to not comment. The kids loved it! I added diced tomatoes with jalapenos for some kick...and used hot enchilada sauce...we love spicy here. I added a combination of red and yellow peppers as that is what I had on hand. Also added some green onions for color. Added some leftover shredded turkey. This is a great recipe...thanks for sharing. We will be making this again for sure!

    I liked this soup very much, it reminds me of a soup I order at Panera bread. I didnt use the shreaded cheese, instead I added velvetta to the soup to give me a smooth cheesey soup, and I did not have enchilada sauce so I used a jarred salsa in place of it, I also did not cook this in a slow cooker, just on top of the stove and it worked out well for me. This makes alot! I froze the left overs for another time. Thanks Nurse Di for the recipe!

    I too added some cooked chicken breast at step 1 and this was one of the best chowder recipes I've had the pleasure of making and eating. So easy to put together and so tasty. I've come to expect no less from Nurse Di's recipes. Hubby loved it said it get's 5 stars. So be it. Thanks for giving me another favorite!
