My family loves to eat, so I'm encouraged to spend lots of time in the kitchen! Featuring garden-fresh produce, this chowder quickly disappears both at home and at potlucks.

I loved this recipe, but admit that I made a couple of changes; I used homemade chicken stock and added 2 c. diced cubed chicken. Our family doesn't like green peppers so I omitted them.
