I'm not a fan of corn, but I really liked this chowder. The black beans and poblano peppers give it a lot of flavor.

This chowder is a little spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. Next time I'll use less poblano pepper.

I love the creamy texture of this chowder. I used almond milk instead of regular milk and it turned out great!

This chowder is a great way to use up leftover corn and black beans. I also added a can of diced tomatoes and some chopped cilantro. It was delicious!
