Number Of Ingredients 11

6 medium potatoes-diced
1 small yellow onion- diced
1 can(s) evaporated milk
water
1 c broccoli florets
4 slice cooked bacon- crumbled
1 c fat free half and half
4 oz reduced fat cream cheese- cubed
1 can(s) campbell's broccoli cheese soup
1/2 c shredded cheddar cheese
4 medium scallions- diced

Steps:

  • 1. In dutch oven; add diced pototoes, onion and evaporated milk. Add just enough water to completely cover potatoes. Bring to a boil stirring constantly until potatoes are tender. Reduce heat to medium and add broccoli. Continue cooking until broccoli is crisp tender.
  • 2. Meanwhile, cook bacon and drain on paper towel. Crumble and add to pototoes. (I have also used left over diced ham)
  • 3. Add cream cheese and stir until completely melted into soup. Add half & half and broccoli cheese soup (undiluted). Continue stirring over medium heat until all ingredients are well incorporated and soup has thickened. Feel free to add more half & half to your disired consistency; as some of the liquid may evaporate during the cooking process.
  • 4. Remove from heat. Top with shredded cheese and scallions. Add salt and pepper to taste! Important note: By adding the soup and cream last keeps this soup from scalding on the bottom while potatoes are cooking.

I'm not a big fan of broccoli, but I loved this chowder! The potatoes and cheese were so creamy and flavorful.

This chowder was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra seasoning and it was much better.

This chowder is amazing! I've made it several times now and it's always a hit. It's creamy and flavorful, and the potatoes and broccoli cook perfectly. I usually add a little extra cheese and bacon to mine, but it's delicious either way.
