Chorizo and Cheese Chowder

While my step daughter was down here living with us, she had to have some periodontal work and she could only have liquids and soft foods for the first few days after. I knew she liked potatoes so I figured a potato soup would be perfect but I did not just want it to be regular boring potatoes and milk so,together and came up with this soup. It turned out to be her favorite thing I made.

I just love my Mom's Potatoe Soup but I added the Sausage & carrots & thickened it up a bit! When I cook I rarely measure so hopefully if you make this you can tweek it to your liking! It's so filling & great with corn muffins on a cold evening!

Easy crowd pleaser!

Yummy 😋!

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.
