Kay Nichols Wellsburg, West Virginia Warm your body and spirit with this comforting chowder. I love sausage and sweet corn, so I put them together, and voila! This is a great soup to serve on a chilly day, along with piping hot homemade biscuits.

This is SO good and great on a cold night. My husband was away for a few days and I served this to him when he got home and he said "now I feel like I'm home!" I used canned potatoes so it came together even more quickly. I will definitely be making this again. Thanks Kay!

I've made this recipe for the last couple of years and am always asked to share it!! I add a little carrots and sliced mushrooms and substitue fat free half-in-half for half the milk. My family loves it and it's become my signature soup among friends!

Absolutely delish. I doubled this recipe so we'd have some leftovers and I'm glad I did. The kids loved it and it was perfect for a cold winter night.

I've made this twice in two days, but added fried bacon the second time and eliminated the bouillon. I also sauted the vegetables in the bacon drippings, which makes it more tasty, and used evaporated milk. It's a keeper!

I have made this receipe a few times now and my husband LOVES it!! I have made it for guests and they all just rave how wonderful it tastes! I use smoked sausage and always double everything, except the sausage.

Excellent. I used spicy sausage and served it with corn bread. My husband LOVED it after working outside for several hours (20 degrees)! And it's so easy to make!! Thank you, Kay!!!!

We doubled everything except the sausage and added 3 small carrots, which we "coined". We used Jimmy Dean's Hot sausage and that provided a nice kick. It was yummy.

Made biscuits with it, but I think rolls would have been a better texture match.

I also doubled the recipe. Used Jimmy Dean Hot Sausage as we like our food spicy. I added 1 cup each chopped onion & celery, 2 sliced carrots & 16 oz. frozen corn...we like our chowder thick. I substituted Chicken Broth for the water & bouillon. Great recipe, Kay, thanks for sharing!

Delicious! I used regular Idaho potatoes instead of red potatoes, and I added carrots, and it was sooo tasty. After reading some of the comments, I went ahead and made a double batch, and not a drop was wasted. Fresh biscuits are a great pairing with this.
