Heidi Rabel, author of "The What To Fix For Dinner Coobook" also teaches. I had the pleasure of attending a day-long soup class hosted by my husband's Aunt. Heidi is very involved with the YWCA and a portion of the proceeds from the sale of her book are donated to the YWCA of Seattle-King County emergency shelter program. She teaches the women in the shelter what they need to know in order to cook and feed their families affordable nutritious meals. I think you'll like this recipe!

This chowder is the perfect way to use up leftover corn. It's also a great make-ahead meal.

This chowder was a bit too thick for my taste, but the flavor was good.

I've never been a fan of corn chowder, but this recipe changed my mind. It's now one of my favorite soups.

Not a fan. The chowder was too spicy for my taste and the corn was undercooked.

Delicious and easy to make! I used frozen corn and it turned out great.

This recipe was a disaster! The chowder turned out bland and watery. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This chowder was just okay. It wasn't as flavorful as I expected and the texture was a bit too thick.

Easy to make and delicious! I added some extra veggies (carrots, celery, and green bell pepper) and it was even better.

This corn chowder was a hit with my family! It had just the right amount of spice and the corn was cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.
