Clean-Eating Potato and Corn Chowder Recipe

Cook Time: 30 minutes

This creamy and hearty chowder is packed with flavor, combining Yukon Gold potatoes, sweet corn, and aromatic herbs. Perfect for a cozy meal!

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 1 ribs celery, diced
  • 3 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 (16 ounce) package frozen sweet corn
  • 1 cube vegetable bouillon (such as Rapunzel)
  • 1 teaspoon dried marjoram
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • Salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons whole wheat pastry flour
  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 cups chicken stock

Directions

  1. Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add diced onion and celery, and cook until they become translucent and soft, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  2. Stir in the diced potatoes, cover the pot, and cook until the potatoes begin to soften, approximately 5 minutes.
  3. Mix in the frozen corn, vegetable bouillon cube, marjoram, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Cover the pot and cook for 2 minutes, or until the corn is warmed through.
  4. Sprinkle in the whole wheat pastry flour, cover again, and cook for another 2 minutes to allow the flour to incorporate.
  5. Pour in the almond milk and chicken stock, stirring to combine. Cover the pot and bring the mixture to a boil.
  6. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the soup has thickened.
  7. Remove the pot from heat and allow the chowder to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
  8. For a thicker consistency, you can blend about half of the soup using an immersion blender, leaving some chunks of potatoes and corn for texture.

I sprinkled some Trader Joe's 21 seasoning salute on top. But to be honest, I add it to pretty much everything I eat :)

I made this soup with a mix of red and yellow fingerling potatoes along with two small sweet potatoes, and the colors turned out beautifully. I didn't have all the recommended seasonings, so I used fresh basil instead. I appreciated that the soup wasn't overly thick or heavy, making it perfect for a summer evening. I'm even considering trying it cold tomorrow!
