Spicy sweet potato corn chowder

It’s Fall, and that means time for making soups and stews! This is one of my family’s favorites (my daughter is a VERY picky eater, and even she loves it). When I make it I have to make 2 batches, one without the hot peppers, as my wife can’t handle spicy. I usually whip up some corn bread to serve with it.

I'm a little conflicted about this recipe. On the one hand, it's pretty fantastic. Like a warm, sweet and savoury hug to your belly. On the other hand, it's the first true "cold-weather" recipe I've posted since the end of summer. So, yeah, bye-bye sunshine, and hello cold and drizzle. Feelings aside, this dish is a great way to use up those spare cans of corn loitering on your pantry shelf. We had enough on ours to last through the apocalypse, which is a little strange because I don't really like canned corn, at least versus frozen corn. Regardless, it was time for a few of those cans to go. Because I had no intention of actually using the canned corn kernels (say that five times fast), I simply blitzed and strained them instead to extract their milk. If you think this is wasteful, feel free to use the canned corn and skip the frozen corn. You'll also need to bump up the liquid with a little extra stock or milk. You may lose some silky sweetness from the missing corn milk, but the chowder should still come out just fine. Robert Gonzal -
Yellow Split Pea-Sweet Potato Corn Chowder Yellow Split Pea-Sweet Potato Corn Chowder
Vegan - Savory Fall Soup - a healthy plant based recipe. I made a pot that will serve about 12 servings or you can refrigerate/freeze the left overs for future quick heat serve meals. Filling, low calorie (250 Calories per bowl/cup), high fiber (14 grams/serving), and 13 G protein/serving. Loaded with Vitamin A, Vitamin C.Sweet root vegetables inspired me on the ingredients with a hint of savory and spicy seasonings. Not your traditional soup. Just In Time Recipes -
