• 2 cups frozen corn, thawed

• 2 stalks celery, chopped

• 1 small onion, chopped

• 1 ½ lbs shrimp, peeled, deveined and coarsely chopped

• 2 cups milk or half & half

Directions:

1. Add broth, seasoning mix, potatoes, corn, celery, onion to slow cooker.

2. Cover and cook on high 4 to 5 hours or low 7 to 8 hours or until shrimp and milk or half & half and cook 30 minutes or until shrimp turn pink

3. ****Substitute 2 cloves chopped garlic, ½ tsp dried thyme leaves and ½ tsp salt for seasoning mix.

Makes 6 servings!!!!

Grace T. and Alyssa M. tried the chowder and had a few thoughts.

Alyssa said, “I really liked it and I'd make it if I could cook.”

Grace told me, “It was okay. I'm. Not fond of shrimp but it was amazing otherwise.”

Bon appetit!
