Soul Satisfying Sausage Corn Chowder

Sausage Corn Chowder


I love soups, stews, and chowders, I find them comforting during the cool days of fall and the barren winters of the Midwest.  This is another great recipe inspired by our friend Susan.  She made a version of this for us and we both found it really satisfying and delicious!  This is also an opportunity for me to use my morsels of fresh frozen sweet corn that I prepped and froze back in August, SCORE!  The other great thing about this soup is that it comes together quickly and you don't have to dirty too many dishes to make it. 


Sausage Corn Chowder

Ingredients:
  • 1 pound Jimmy Dean sausage cooked and crumbled
  • 2 cans evaporated milk
  • 3 cups diced/cubed Potatoes
  • 2 cups Corn (fresh, frozen or canned)
  • 1 can creamed corn
  • 1/3 cup diced Red Peppers (optional)
  • 2 cups of Water
  • 1/4 teaspoon White pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon celery salt
  • Pinch of cayenne pepper

Directions:
  • Cook sausage and drain fat
  • Combine all ingredients in stock pot or dutch oven and simmer until potatoes are cooked through and soup is thickened and creamy
  • If you have the time to simmer it for an hour or two, the flavors will meld...matter of fact some would say it is even better the second day.
