Corn chowder doesn’t need to be complicated to be comforting. You’ll find this simple recipe to be quick and perfect for a cozy winter night.

Tip: Adding raw potatoes would increase the cooking time substantially, but if you have leftover roasted or baked potatoes, you can cube them and toss them in.
