Flavored with crab, shrimp and cheddar cheese, this chowder is so good that I make it weekly. Sometimes I substitute chicken or ham for the seafood and leave out the juice. Either way, this pretty soup is a winner. —Ami Paton Waconia, Minnesota

Loved the simplicity of the recipe but my husband and I found it to be a little bland. Thought it could use some parsley, garlic and salt. Will play around with the leftovers and see if I can add another layer of flavor.

this recipe is delicious. I usually double it as my family is big but it doesn't require any adjusting. My only comment would be that you can use V8 is clamato isn't available.

I've made this recipe several times and it's amazing! I have followed it exactly to the letter, and I've played around with different seafood and it always comes out so good. My favorite combination is clam and shrimp. Make sure to use your best sharp cheddar in this recipe, as it does make a difference. I serve this chowder in hollowed out sourdough bread bowls along with a salad. Very, very good!
