Corn and Potato Chowder

November 4, 2014 By Madison Wetherill Leave a Comment

Happy November, friends! It’s Madison from The Wetherills Say I Do.

Are you in love with this month? I know I am. Isn’t it funny how much the weather and season dictates our cravings? As it gets colder, I crave warm dishes that can warm your entire body. One of those meals for me is any flavor of soup.

I had never really made soup from scratch until last winter. And ever since I learned how, I’m not going back. Side note, until my husband was 22, he didn’t like potatoes. At all. Go ahead, pick your jaw up off the ground, I know it’s insane. But thankfully now he does so I can make delicious soups like this corn and potato chowder.

This is the perfect soup for a fall or wintery day. It is definitely one of those soups that warms you all the way down to your toes. The ingredients are so simple and honestly this soup is just too easy to make! The chicken broth added into the soup adds so much dimension to the soup which I love.

Soups are also perfect for fall because they are super easy to make in bulk and then freeze for later. Take a Saturday and cook a batch or two of this to save for later, you’ll definitely be thankful that you have it once a super cold day rolls around.
