WHITE BEAN CHOWDER



White Bean Chowder image

A lovely, filling soup with sweet and spicy flavors from the sweet corn and spices. I found this in a Dairy Favorites card at the grocery and made a few tweaks for our preferences. You can also sub white cannellini beans for the great northern - I just find it easier to locate the great northerns in my area.

BROWN BEAN CHOWDER



Brown Bean Chowder image

This bean chowder is similar to chili. It's one of the most popular dishes at Tulsa Public Schools. Those of us growing up in the 60's and 70's remember it fondly as a favorite treat. A real stick-to-your-ribs comfort food. Tradition dictates that it is served with cinnamon rolls. This was given to me by my grandmother who was a dietician/cook for over 40 years.

CORN AND BEAN CHOWDER



Corn and Bean Chowder image

This is a nice cold weather recipe. Originally found in the "More With Less" cookbook, I modified it a bit to make it a little healthier. You can add cooked potatoes if you would like a thicker soup, but we didn't feel it needed it. The original recipe called for fresh or frozen corn. I used frozen. I wouldn't attempt to use canned corn here, but my husband hates canned corn and won't eat anything that it is in. So take that on advisement!
