First Crockpot Corn Chowder of the Season!

Let me just say that yes it is 80 degrees today but I had a hankering for some good corn chowder so the crockpot was taken down and I started to work!
I put everything in. Halfway through cooking I shaved one of the ears of corn and left the other whole. I added flour and sugar to the original recipe along with carrots and some seasonings to my taste. Old Bay is my favorite!

This is the finished product approximately 4.5 hours later. The recipe calls for 4 hours but that will vary with the crockpot and anything else you may add to it! I topped it with cheese and served it hot! So excited for leftovers this week with this! yum!

So I was able to complete one thing on my goals list - I made a healthy meal! One down for the week :) I also replaced my normal soda with OJ for the meal! Win for me!
