A hearty potato and corn chowder is a quick and easy meal that’s ideal for winter nights!
Sometimes you just need a bowl of soup. Whether it’s a busy weeknight, or a lazy weekend, a hearty bowl of potato and corn chowder is comforting and easy to make.
On those busy nights when you barely have time to make dinner, this recipe is super easy to throw together. It takes a few minutes to peel and dice potatoes, but everything else is probably already in your pantry.
If you have a corn allergy, you can substitute another vegetable of your choice. Some options would be: peas and carrots, diced sweet potatoes, or white beans. Whatever vegetables you include in this chowder, this is sure to be a warm and cozy soup your family will enjoy!

Thanks for this recipe. I’ve made the one from Desperation Dinners many times but don’t have the recipe. I need it for a work party and am thrilled you created a gf and df free version which is the one I will use. The most unique spice in the original recipe (marjoram) is not in yours, and I don’t have any at the moment. So another win for your recipe.

I’m glad you found this recipe! I loved that cookbook, but I wasn’t crazy about the marjoram, so I left it out. I never have it anyway! :)

How large are the cans of broth? 15 oz? 32 oz? not sure how brothy this should be vs chock full of veggies.
Thanks,

I heart your blog and have shopped at your Etsy store a couple of times. I absolutely love everything you design!
I was wondering if you design blog designs for other people? I really, REALLY like your clean format, and need a change in my little online space. Something not so busy.
When you get a minute, please email me at gerri.kimble@gmail.com.
Thanks! :)
