I'm allergic to shrimp, so I used imitation crab meat instead. It turned out great!

This chowder is a little too thick for my taste. I think I'll add some more milk next time.

I made this chowder in my slow cooker, and it turned out perfectly. It's so easy to just throw all the ingredients in the slow cooker and let it cook all day.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chowder turned out too salty. I think I'll use less salt next time.
