Snownami, Snowpocalypse, snowmaggeddon...




It is snowing, everyone is home I am going to convince my husband to make a fire while he is on his lunch break. I am ready for the doomsday storm to begin...because then there will be a valid reason that I have been listening to these ANNOYING news casters for the last two days. 
I am posting the Chowder recipe it was a tasty treat, and easy to make. 


 Corn Chowder


1 stalk celery hearts
1 half onion (or more if you want)
3 carrots
3 medium potatoes
3 gloves of garlic
2 tbsps olive oil 
2 tbsp butter
flour 
broth - chicken or veg..or beef... whatever
3 cups frozen corn
1 cup cream
1 cup sour cream
CHEESE
chop onion, carrots, celery, garlic and potatoes and add to melted butter and olive oil. salt and pepper to taste.( I also used Organic No Salt Seasoning from Costco.)
Cook until soft 
dust with flour and stir 
add corn add broth to coverboil till potatoes are soft (almost mushy) 
makes a good consistency for the chowder
add cream and sour cream cook until warm through (don’t boil)
Cheese to taste...add a handful at a time so it can melt nicely and incorporate



Stay warm and enjoy your day!
