Thick and Creamy Corn Chowder

October 12, 2015 By Milen Gala

Have I ever told you about my love for all things corn?

Yes, I’m all about it: cornbread muffins, cornbread waffles, corn on the cob (which I think my husband has PERFECTED), corn salsa, corn tortillas, corn everything…

So how could I resist the thought of making a thick and creamy corn chowder? I couldn’t really. So here it is: my thick and creamy vegan corn chowder! 13 simple, natural, ingredients; most of which you already have at home and the rest of which you can find at practically any grocery store, 15 minutes prep time, and dinner in one, hot, creamy, bubbly, pot. What could be better?

803A1171-1Over the years I’ve made many versions of corn soup. When I first started cooking for the two of us I made a pretty good spicy southwest corn chowder. 6 ingredients, including jalapeños, you know the drill… But as I’m getting more experienced at turning corn into something truly amazing, I was looking to kick it up a notch, you know, make a corn chowder that would take first prize in a corn chowder making contest…

Well, here it is my friends! The most perfect pot of creamy, vegan, sinfully delicious corn chowder on the planet! Okay, maybe that’s a bit of an over exaggeration, but I really think this bowl of chowder is incredibly amazing!

This soup is the perfect early fall meal. It’s a delicate balance of warm, healthy, creamy, and sweet with a subtle bit of savoriness. It’s loaded with so much good for you goodness.

This thick and creamy vegan corn chowder is one of my favorite all time go to soups. Although corn may not be in season all year it really does taste best with fresh corn, although in the winter months you can use frozen.
