Lunchity lunch lunch lunch!

Cream of potato and corn chowder made from scratch.

  • Two onions diced.
  • One red pepper diced.

Sweat those off with a teaspoon of butter and add:

  • Water, 2 cups.
  • Six peeled, cubed russet potatoes.
  • I can sweet corn or 1.5 cups frozen corn (I had a can handy).
  • 3 heaping teaspoons powdered chicken base (I buy this in bulk).
  • Fill to just over top of veg with more water.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • Dash of dill weed

When potatoes are cooked:

  • Thicken with a flour and water slurry while simmering (beware of lumps in the slurry!).
  • Add about 2 tbsp heavy cream and stir in (take off heat before adding cream – burned milk products are NASTY).

Serve in bowls and top with any of the following:

  • Crumbled cooked bacon
  • Grated cheddar
  • Chopped green onions

Yeah that’s a lot of work!

I’m more of a light cooker.

The microwave is my best friend.

It truly isn’t. You can also cheat and just throw everything in a crockpot on high and thicken at the end. I’m more of a “use the stove” type. If it helps any, the food cost on this meal is about $3.00 CDN (maybe $2.30 USD). It will feed four people or one person four times.
