I thought this chowder was really yummy!!! I tweaked it by substituting a can of Cream of Mushroom condensed soup for the evaporated milk and adding garlic powder, Sazon Completa from Badia, a cut up jalapeno (I simmered this with all the vegetables) and canned chicken. I also simmered the vegetables in chicken broth instead of water. I also added about a quarter cup of water to thin it out a bit.

This was absolutely amazing. I doubled up the corn and the milk, but left everything else the same. Served this with some homemade yeast rolls and a side Cesar salad. It was a hit. I've already shared this recipe with one of my friends. Will be one of the new staples for fall/winter cooking. Thanks for sharing with us!!!

go easy on the cayenne pepper if you want less of a kick. i doubled the amount of milk for a more soupy texture.

Has a great kick to it! Just know that it's a little spicy, so add less ceyenne pepper if you like less spice.

This was a good recipe! I enjoyed it for what it is; a simple quick recipe. I think it's lacking some depth. Perhaps throwing some bacon in first and rendering before adding celery will help. Otherwise, very good recipe.

Such a good dinner for a cold night :) I sauteed celery, garlic and onion in olive oil before adding it. It was very thick so I added a cup of chicken broth to it also. Delicious!

This is one of my favorite recipes.. because of the ratio OF goodness to ease!! I leave out the celery just because my husband doesn't like it. This is his FAVORITE soup and craves it when he comes back from snow plowing! Thanks for this great recipe I can make so easily and quickly with stuff I already have in the house! I do normally use a little more potatoes than the recipe calls for which makes it a little bit thicker. I also sprinkle w/cheddar cheese.. SO AWESOME.. THIS IS THE BEST!!

This recipe is pretty good! I was looking for a corn chowder that wasn't high in fat...this def. works! I do replace the evaporated milk with the fat free version and it works fine.

It wasn't too bad but the flavour from the creamed corn took over the whole soup, I would rather be able to taste the individual flavours.

This is a very good gluten free recipe. Second time though I rounded all the fresh cut ingredients, plus added an extra can of corn and some chopped green onions too. Hearty and Delicious!

This was DELICIOUS! I added more potatoes and a bit of garlic and also substituted hot sauce for the cayenne. I made it as 8 servings and it's totally gone with only 3 of us eating!!!! This is another new family fave!

We quite enjoyed this chowder. We made a few adjustments/additions to the recipe (3/4 c. diced celery instead of 1/2, 1/4 tsp. grnd cayenne pepper instead of 1/8 and we added 1 minced clove of garlic and 1/2 c. sharp 'white' cheddar cheese) as recommended by other reviewers which is why we rated it '4' stars instead of '5'. We also made sure to dice small cubes where the potatoes where concerned as suggested by other reviewers as well. Thanks for this recipe CARIBOUR. Cheerio :o)

Followed the recipe exactly and it was bland. Tried to put in additional paprika and chicken broth but it was still so-so. Thanks anyway but won't be making this again.

This is a good basic recipe, but I wonder about pouring out the stock from the cooked vegetables. I use minimum water and then just add the other ingredients. I don’t want to dump the vitamins and minerals down the drain. I use frozen corn instead of canned whole corn, add a diced carrot and a bit of diced bell pepper as well as a few drops of hot sauce.

SUPER easy! No smoky bacon flavor but delicious all the same. The only thing I did different was after I boiled the veggies, I sauteed them in a little butter to be sure the potatoes had flavor. My hubby LOVED it. I loved that it was easy prep and quick to make.
