I only made this soup occasionally because the original recipe was quite high in fat. I doctored it up a bit, using healthier ingredients, and now we eat this rich flavorful chowder more often. —Ellie Rausch of Goodsoil, Saskatchewan

I made this over the weekend. It was excellent! I used evaporated milk in place of 2% milk since we were low on milk at the time... turned out great. I served the soup with garlic breadsticks! This recipe is going in my "save" folder. Thanks!!

DELICIOUS flavor!! But...The first time we made it, we used nonfat milk (trying to be even healthier)...and the cheese seized! We made it again, using 2% milk, and it was WONDERFUL. We REALLY like this soup. It's rich, tasty, and comforting, and not so heavy. Delicious.
