Laura from Family Spice

I’ve chosen the 2nd recipe by default again since the originally chosen 2nd recipe for September was a repeat and I couldn’t wait for another recipe before posting this. I thought it would be a great complement to the chowda!
which can be found in Barefoot Contessa Parties! on page 189
and should be posted on October 28th.

Ok I don’t know what happened but when I pulled up the site yesterday it showed Cheddar Corn Chowder was October’s pick – today I see that was last year’s pick! Not sure why it pulled up an old page. I cannot do shellfish so no clam chowder for me – anyone have a suggestion as to a substitution on that?
Peggy, I’m also allergic to shellfish and I plan to substitute corn and make a corn chowder instead.
Thanks gals. . .I will try the corn or fish!
If you can have fish, you can use fish stock and substitute cod for the clams and make a fish chowder. Corn sounds good, too!
