Corn Chowder is just one of our very favorite soups.  It’s hearty and so comforting!  This one, I made in the slow cooker…and turned a warm and yummy meal into a super simple one too!  I used a chicken sausage in this recipe but feel free to use whatever kind of sausage your family loves.  An Italian sausage or breakfast sausage would be yummy too!

Shopping List

1 pound of sausage

1 onion, chopped

1 (16 oz) package of frozen corn

3 red skinned or new potatoes, chopped (you don’t need to peel these types of potatoes)

2 cups chicken stock

2 cups milk (I used 2%)

Salt and Pepper

In a skillet over medium-high heat, brown up your sausage until it’s cooked through and crumbly.

In your slow cooker, layer your cooked sausage, onion, corn, potatoes and stock.  Cover and cook on low 6 to 8 hours or on high 3 hours.

Right before you’re ready to serve your soup, stir in your milk and let it sit about 5 minutes or so.

Ladle soup into bowls and enjoy.

Really, is there anything better than coming home to soup bubbling away in the slow cooker?  I think not!
