I found this recipe on the Taste of Home website. I have changed it a little to suit our tastes. It’s so quick and easy.

• Reduce heat; cover and simmer until the vegetables are nearly tender. Stir in the corn, cream (or milk) and salmon. Simmer for 15 minutes or until heated through.
• Bring to a boil and add the corn starch mixture, stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes. Turn off heat and enjoy!

Helpful hints:

This recipe is very adaptable to what ingredients I have on hand. If I have fresh corn then I use it. If I have cream, then I use it. I have even left the salmon out and just made a potato corn chowder and it was amazing.
