Confetti Chowder image

Grandma's philosophy was, "Add a little color to your food, and folks will eat up a storm!" This delightful golden chowder was one of her favorite recipes, and the broccoli, carrots and zucchini in it add flavor as well as color. Grandma served mugs of steaming chowder to warm us as we sat cross-legged before the crackling fireplace in her kitchen.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chowder turned out really watery. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This chowder is really easy to make, but it's not very flavorful. I would add more spices next time.

I was skeptical about the confetti pasta, but it actually worked really well in this chowder. It added a nice bit of texture and color.
