This is so beautiful! Peeling the potatoes is optional...your preference. Add some french bread and a salad and you have a meal! It can also be prepared and frozen for future use! Freeze in airtight container, then thaw in refrigerator for 24 hours. Place in a saucepan and cook over low heat until heated thoroughly....stir often! Adapted from Southern Living.

Delicious creamy chowder! DH and I thoroughly enjoyed this recipe for lunch today, although I only used shrimp in it as crab meat is so expensive. So easy to make too! Made for "TYM - Theirs Yours & Mine photo tag game (October 09)."

I love chowder and this one was so delicious! I loved the rich broth from the evaporated milk, and the seafood and corn gave it so much flavor. I didn't add the red pepper, as I thought I would like it better without. I cut the recipe in half and now wish I had made the whole batch, because we enjoyed it so much! I could have eaten it for a couple of more days and been very happy Thank you for sharing this yummy recipe with us Breezermom! Made for 123 Hit Wonders 2/09 Linda

I'm going to give this one 5 stars. My husband thought it was a definite 5 and I thought it was a 4 - but let me explain that I'm not a fan of corn in any recipe and usually omit it but did not in this case. i was hoping for a more rich seafoody/potatoey flavor but this was almost sweet despite the triple amount of tabasco I put in. That being said, my husband would be the true judge of a recipe like this and he LOVED it! He's not a soup eater and was not crazy about this being served tonight...until he tasted it. He then proceeded to eat 3 bowls. I used 8 cloves of garlic and increase all veggie's by a tad bit. I used chicken stock rather than broth and I did not peel my potatoes (due to a serious problem in my house called the ever missing potato peeler!). The store I got my ingredients at also did not have the fat free evaporated milk so I used 2%. Very tasty...very rich. Despite being so low in fat. Gotta love these super low fat dishes that still deliver a wallop of a punch of flavor! Great job here! Made for Photo Tag - Winter Game.
