TEXAS COUNTRY CLUB CORN CHOWDER



Texas Country Club Corn Chowder image

The peppers in this soup give it just the right amount of spice, while the half & half and bacon give it just the right amount of richness. A creamy, comforting meal. The recipe is from Barton Creek Country Club in Austin, TX. I clipped it from the Austin-American Statesman many years ago.

TEXAS CORN CHOWDER

THIS RECIPE has been a favorite in our family for years. Now that we have an empty nest, I took it upon myself to cut the recipe down to serve two so we can still enjoy it. The jalapeno adds a little zip and color! -Mildred Sherrer, Bay City , Texas

TEXAS CORN CHOWDER



Texas Corn Chowder image

This is quick and easy to make. Its very good and my picky eating daughters even love it, especially on a cold evening. We have it with either corn chips or corn bread. I use the low fat/low sodium soup and 1% milk and is just as tasty. This was given to me by a co-workers wife after he brought some to work and shared one day. Just as good re-heated.

THE DOVE'S NEST TEXAS CHOWDER



The Dove's Nest Texas Chowder image

Another Dove's Nest favorite, from their cookbook. The cookbook says, "During the winter months, this is one of our most popular soups - a chowder hearty enough to be served as a one-course meal." I'm just guessing at prep and cooking time - the cookbook didn't note it, and I've never made the soup myself, just eaten it at the restaurant. It is absolutely delicious, and one of my favorite things that they serve.

TEXAS CHOWDER

I love soups of all types and on a cold day I had a hankerin' for a good chowder but couldn't find a recipe that satisfied my craving so to speak, so I created this one.
