Fun Fact!
- Probably the most traditional chowder is made with clams. Well, fish chowders were the forerunners of clam chowder. The chowders originally made by the early settlers differed from other fish soups because they used salt pork and ship’s biscuits. We feel luck to have all sorts of chowder options, even vegetarian soup recipes, in our kitchen today!

I usually give most recipes several start. But not this one. I was so disappointed at the flavor....or lack of flavor! It was very bland. I did not realize it was going to make such a huge pot of soup. I did not have any white pepper, so I use black pepper. BIG mistake! It certainly had a lot of "heat" to it. I had to keep adding more and more salt. This is unusual for me, because I am not a salt lover. I put a little shredded Cheddar in my bowl of soup. Tonight, to give it more flavor, I added chopped cooked ham. It really helped. I hate giving this a negative review, but it just could not be helped. I love Mr. Food's recipes and will continue to make them.

This wasn't bad but not as good as I was expecting. Wish I had cut the recipe in half because it does make a lot of soup. I added the seasonings it called for and I still had to add a lot more seasonings for taste which helped a lot. Of course, adding butter and cheese to it made a big difference too. May or may not make it again.

This recipe is under a different section than Meals for Two, but you could cut in in half. I suspect is would't freeze This recipe is under a different section than Meals for Two, but you could cut it in half. I suspect is would't freeze well. Might add some diced potato, onion and celery, since this a recipe you can surely make to your preference. Of course, a pat of butter or cheese on top is always good!
