    I've often wondered what corn chowder is, so I finally looked it up. Seems there are quite a few different recipes on it. Which one is good? I might try it some day.

    If you like seafood, then Seafood Chowder is the BEST....no kidding.

    Thanks for the recipe, that sounds easy. Not sure I can get a can of cream style corn, though we do have a supermarket that sell American and British products. I usually buy frozen corn.

    When I saw the pictures of corn chowder, it reminded of this:

    I do like seafood, so I'll look into that, too. Gotta keep away from shrimps at the moment, though. My cholesterol no. is 7.3.

    I edited the recipe a bit - you might want to check it out. I imagine you could "cream" your own frozen corn too - must be a recipe somewhere on how to do that. It's just so easy to open a can tho...........

    Our corn chowder always had little bits of bacon in it, too!

    You're right Karen, tho I don't usually have bacon or fat back in the house. I always have all the other ingredients to throw one together in a jiffy tho, and I don't find where it makes a big difference with that one ingredient missing.

    Sorry, guys, my fault. I gave Orc the keys, he was supposed to put them back in place. I guess we need to get David's butt back in here, he seems to be the only one Orc listens to.

    I don't do anything fancy or time consuming - just pretty basic. What I post below will serve 2. You can always increase it.

    2 or 3 boiled potatoes - peeled and diced. I leave mine more in chunk size - I like the bigger pieces.
    1 can cream style corn - 14.75oz or 418g
    milk
    onion
    ground black pepper

    Brown a small chopped onion in butter. You can use dehydrated chopped onion in place of fresh - just rehydrate first.
    Add in the corn and potatoes, and just enough milk to get a desired consistency - just however you like it. I prefer mine somewhat thick, so don't use much milk. Pepper to taste. Then just heat and eat.

    This is a nice quick fix, yet homemade without a lot of fuss. You can extend it a little too by adding a can of drained whole kernel corn. Makes it a little "cornier"

    Oh my Lord, that's sounds wonderful I have some frozen corn that I can use in place of the fresh corn. All I need is the creamed corn which I don't normally like but in this recipe... well let's just say I know what I'm having this weekend. Richard, that cornbread recipe is to die for. Thanks for posting that. Luv ya

    Hey, this weekend is Thanksgiving weekend for us Canucks - anyone want some turkey and stuffing?? Pillows provided.

    For now, please may I have a Gin and Tonic???

    Hey y'all! Sorry I've not been communicating, but my on line time is limited due to VACATION!! We're in Manitou Springs right now. It's been amazing.

    Could I please get some corn chowder, some jalapeno corn bread and my usual vodka & diet ginger? Thanks; appreciate it!

    Leaving work in 10 min. Have a date with my trainer tonight.

    PM: I'm on vacation now until the 18th. Heading to New Mexico to visit Zippy and her furcrew. Apparently all I need are shorts, T's and flip flops..... Looking forward to some sunshine.

    One large cold beer to go please. I'll check back on the weekend.

    When going to NM- go for a margarita- here we have temps in the 50s so it's rather corn chowder time - never heard of creamed corn but there seem to be ways around it.
