Whether you're feeding a crowd or freezing leftovers for later, it's the kind of soup that feels like a hug from home.

From our Illinois kitchen to yours, this chowder brings the bounty of the prairie to every bite—warm, golden, and made with love.

    Excellent and super easy

    Posted by Sharon C on Jul 5th 2024

    Besides the packet I used 6 c chicken broth, 3 large potatoes cubed, 3 ears fresh corn but I think canned or frozen would work too, and 2 c cream. I will definitely purchase this again and will now try other packet flavors.

    Pure comfort food

    I used frozen diced potatoes and frozen corn instead of fresh. We like it topped with a sprinkle of Baco's chips. So delicious!

    Crockpot Easy

    Posted by Janet Hofstetter on Feb 27th 2024

    I love a crockpot recipe that’s basically dump and go. I used Yukon Gold potatoes since they don’t need to be peeled and added some ham I had in the freezer. Served it at a Lenten soup supper and got good reviews.
