Chowder of Salmon & Green Peas image

A different take on the usual salmon chowder. Just for looks I suggest using the skinless variety of canned salmon that is available now. Update - As noted in the reviews adding some cooked potato and extra veggies along with the peas is an option that sound good. Watch the added carbohydrate if you need to.
