POBLANO SHRIMP CORN CHOWDER
Absolutely delicious and hearty soup that is always a crowd pleaser and the best I have ever had. Not for those highly concerned with fat grams but worth the splurge even if you are. Great served alongside a meal of soft tacos. I frequently use "Better than Bouillon" as a base and I think the lobster and vegetable are equally good. If you want a lighter, thinner version, omit the creams and use another quart of whole or 2% milk.
