Aahh…a delicious bowl of warming potato chowder. Soothing and delicious, this is the perfect dish to master in time for cooler autumn evenings. Potato chowder can be as frugal or rich as you like and is a great vehicle for adding bacon, ham or even seafood, depending on what you like to eat, and what you have in your cupboard and refrigerator!
This straightforward, tasty version from
Allrecipes includes crispy bacon and skin-on potato pieces for a speedy preparation time.
Served with shredded cheese and green onion, there's a lot of flavor going on in this chowder, but it takes no time at all to fix. If you haven't made potato chowder before, this is a great place to start!
Chives provide a great savory note in sauces or soups, and they appear in this rich, creamy version from
Campbell's Kitchen. You could switch some of the cans of soup for chicken, mushroom or celery for a slightly different flavor or to suit your family's tastes.
Whichever one of these great recipes you try, don't hesitate to experiment with a handful of chopped cooked ham, a different type of cheese, or how about a spoonful of sour cream? The humble potato rises to the occasion once again!
