Cheddar Ham Chowder image

Delicious, very modifiable chowder. Serve this with a salad and rolls or beer bread. Yum! Consider this a basic recipe that can be modified according to specific tastes and needs. Carrots and celery can be added when cooking the potatoes if desired. Bacon would be delicious in this as well.

Time 50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups water
2 cups peeled and cubed potatoes
½ cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, chopped
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup butter
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 cups 1% milk
1 (8 ounce) package low-fat cream cheese
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1 (15 ounce) can corn
1 ½ cups cubed fully cooked ham

Steps:

  • Bring water, potatoes, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper to a boil in a large saucepan. Reduce heat, cover with a lid, and simmer until vegetables are just tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat.
  • Melt butter in a separate large saucepan over medium heat. Stir flour into melted butter until smooth. Gradually stir milk into butter-flour mixture; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 2 minutes.
  • Stir cream cheese and Cheddar cheese into milk mixture until melted. Pour potato mixture, including liquid, into milk-cheese mixture; add corn and ham. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soup is heated through, 10 to 15 more minutes.

I'm not usually a fan of chowder, but this one is a definite exception. It's creamy and flavorful, and the ham and cheese add a really nice touch.

I've made this chowder twice now and it's a hit every time. The first time I followed the recipe exactly, and the second time I made a few substitutions (used chicken stock instead of vegetable stock, and added some chopped carrots and celery). Both

This cheddar ham chowder is the ultimate comfort food! It's creamy, cheesy, and packed with flavor. I especially love the addition of ham, which gives it a nice salty smokiness.
