    This Chowder Was Wonderful! I Also Used Fat Free Evaporated Milk Instead Of Cream And Lactade Free Milk As I Can't Have Dairy. I Used Steelhead Because Of The Price Of Salmon. Next Time I Would Add More Corn. My Husband Loved It Also. 5 Stars In My Book. - 10/24/10

    This is delicious! I used fat-free evaporated milk in place of the heavy cream to save some calories. - 6/20/09
