HARVEST CORN CHOWDER

Harvest Corn Chowder image

This rich, creamy chowder is so good you won't believe it starts with canned soup and frozen vegetables. It showcases tender chunks of halibut, but salmon or most any type of whitefish will do. I double the recipe for large gatherings, and guests almost lick the pot clean!-Mary Davis, Palmer, Alaska
