Ingredients

    2 tbsp butter
    1 medium sweet onion diced or finely chopped
    3 Yukon Gold potatoes chopped
    2 medium carrots diced
    1/2 tsp dried Thyme
    1 1/2 tsp sea salt
    1/4 tsp black pepper
    2 cups vegetable broth or corn stock
    2 cup half and half or condensed milk
    1 cup chopped green beans

    1 medium zucchini or summer squash, diced
    2 tbsp corn starch
    3 cups 2% Milk
    2 cup frozen or fresh sweet corn,

Tips

The vegetable amounts are approximate. I don't like waste, so if I buy green beans for the soup, I use them all. Like-wise with onions or other vegetables. Most vegetables (except maybe potatoes) don't change the calorie count that much if you have a few more or less.


Directions

1.Melt butter in heavy bottom pot 4 quarts or larger, over medium heat. Add onion and cook until it turns translucent, about 6 minutes.
2. Add potatoes, carrots, thyme, salt and pepper and stir. Add the vegetable broth and bring it to simmer and cook uncovered until potatoes are tender to the bite, about 12 minutes.
3. Add half and half, green beans, pepper and zucchini and bring to a simmer once again. Cook until vegetables are tender to the bite, about 5 minutes.
4. Whisk corn starch with 1/4 of the milk in a small bowl and add rest of the milk to the pot. When it comes to a gentle simmer, add corn starch mixture and corn kernels. simmer until chowder thickens and taste for seasoning before serving.

    Incredible!
    Made for dinner tonight in the crock pot! (5 hrs on High) -- Since I always go with veggies on hand, I substituted 2 (sweet peppers, grn beans) for 2 others: kale & cauliflower (riced). I also added in pork sausage for a meat. Great flavor all around. Will definitely "do again"! - 4/12/21
