Corn Chowder

          It's very chilly here in Michigan. Our temperature is 21F and so decided to cook corn chowder.
             





               Corn Chowder
1 small onion, chopped
1/4 cup butter
1 1/4 cup water
1  can (14 3/4 ounces) cream-style corn
2  medium potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes
1  cup milk
salt and pepper to taste
dash of parsley ( I used dry)

Procedure:
1) In a sauce pan, saute onion in a butter until tender. Add the water, corn and potatoes, bring  to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 16-20 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Reduce heat to low.
2) Stir in the milk, salt and pepper. Cook for 5-10 minutes or until heated through, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle with parsley.

Yield 4 servings. You may substitute water to a chicken broth. But omit salt.

  2. This sounds delicious, Kim. Our weather is not as cold as yours, but winters here are wet and gray. That means we are soup lovers. I know I would enjoy the soup you are sharing with us today. I hope you had a good holiday and that 2012 brings only good things your way. Blessings...Mary
