"When the weather gets chilly, we enjoy 'comfort foods' like this hearty chowder," says Sheena Hoffman of North Vancouver, British Columbia. "It's easy to prepare, and the aroma of it as it simmers makes my mouth water."

Incredible soup! This was not too hard to make and was really good cold-weather comfort food. I added more salt just before serving.

Delicious! I used pepper jack cheese instead because I didn't have cheddar on hand. And I forgot to add the bacon. Next time I'll definitely make a double batch!

Wonderful recipe.

The only substitution made was turkey bacon rather than regular bacon. This might require a little more salt on the tail end, but otherwise it was very tasty!

this was a hit and my family doesn't care for soup! we used half and half cream instead of the milk and the potatoes were leftovers that had their own spices on them - add some extra flavour. great recipe!

Always a good choice, versatile recipe that you can add too to make it your own

It is very good and fast but I changed a lot in it. I added Better Than Bouillon into water and added a little bit more bouillon to cover the vegetables. I used Sweet Corn Cream Style instead of frozen corn that`s why I didn`t use the flour and cold water. I added little bit the part of cooked bacon to give my chowder more bacon flovor during the last boiling stage. And I used Velveeta Cheese.

Good stuff! Easy too. Needed just a little salt for my tastes.

I was looking to duplicate a recipe that I tried in a restaurant and this is fabulous. I did omit the bacon because I didn't have any on hand and added a little more corn that called for. Will definitely be making this again and again!
