Drizzle olive oil into the bottom of a large, lidded soup pot. Place over medium heat. Add roughly chopped onion, carrots, celery, and minced garlic. Cover pot with lid and cook for about 5 minutes.

Open packages of frozen creamed corn and add to the chowder. Sprinkle dried thyme into chowder and stir to combine. Cover pot with lid and simmer over low heat for about 20 minutes.
