Like a good vegetable chowder, but not the fat that comes with a cream-based soup.....Try this: Make the chowder base by placing a can of butter beans and a small cooked potato in a blender; puree til smooth. Make a strong broth by disolving one chicken cube and one vegetable cube in a cup of boiling water; add this broth to the base, a little at a time, until you get the consistency you want. Then add an assortment of vegetables: some canned or frozen sweet corn...canned beans (red, white or black)...cooked frozen mixed vegetables (I like a comb. of carrots, cauliflower and broccoli)...cooked diced potatoes, etc. Stir well...heat til bubbly...ENJOY!
Not worried about the fat: Use cream style corn, and add a generous helping of diced cooked ham....DELICIOUS!!!
Eat well,
