Corn Shrimp Chowder
My absolute favorite cold weather, cozy up, warm your bones and super yummy soup! Easy to make and full of amazing flavor. Sometimes the leftovers are even better than fresh. Enjoy!
Welcome to my first non-dessert recipe on the blog. I figured I would start sharing some of these from time to time. I love to bake, but I love to just regular old cook too. I have a ton of dishes we make on repeat and my friends have always asked for recipes, so here you have it.
First up is our famous Corn Shrimp Chowder. This is my favorite soup/chowder of all time. I could probably eat the entire pot if I knew people wouldn’t judge me or if I could wear stretchy pans for several days. I think my mom got this recipe from a lady she was in Junior League with back when I was little and we morphed it into our own.
It’s incredibly easy, basically just put everything in a pot and let hangout for a few hours. I like to put shredded cheese and Club crackers in mine to make it a thick true chowder. This is perfect on a cold day when you just want some comfort food. Also, it’s always a huge crowd pleaser. You gotta give this a try this winter!

1 teaspoon chopped garlic
1/2 cup chopped celery
2 small bags frozen salad shrimp, thawed
2 cans cream of potato soup
1 can sliced potatoes, cut into pieces
1 can corn
2 cans evaporated milk
Instructions:
In a large pot on medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the garlic, onions and celery. Cook for about 5 minutes until the onions are soft. (Tip- this soup does not do well in a crock pot, stick to a stove and pot)

Stir until all combined. Then cover and turn heat to low. Heat for several hours.
Serve with shredded cheese on top and crackers.
