Chorizo, Black Bean & Corn Chowder image

This is a lovely chowder with great flavors, and it's quick and easy to make. It's a great way to stretch a small amount of flavourful meat a long way. I used turkey sausage, and it was terrific. Recipe courtesy of my latest favorite cookbook Spilling the Beans.

I followed the recipe exactly and the soup turned out great. It was a little thick for my taste, so I added some extra broth. I also added some chopped cilantro and it really brightened up the soup.

I made this soup for a party and it was a hit! Everyone loved it. I especially liked the addition of the cornbread croutons. They added a nice crunch to the soup.

I followed the recipe exactly and the soup turned out great. It was a little spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chorizo if you don't like spicy food.
