KIDNEY BEAN CHOWDER
Another recipe from the RSVP section of a November 1981 issue of Bon Appetit. It was requested from Maxwell's Bistro in Eureka, California.This recipe goes together quickly, can be doubled or tripled easily and freezes well. Substitute vegetable broth to make this vegetarian.If you want a heartier chowder, add two peeled and diced potatoes and 1 pound of browned ground beef or browned bulk pork sausage. Serve with hot, crusty rolls and a salad.
