Corn-Cheddar Chowder
Recipe

This rich chowder offers a delicious harmony of flavors; sweet corn, smoky bacon and sharp cheddar cheese. Fresh corn in season is always best, but frozen corn also works very well, and makes the chowder a snap to prepare.

  6. Add the corn to the chowder and continue cooking for 10 minutes.

  7. Slowly add the cream and cheese and stir until the cheese melts.
