Corn Chowder...

Today I brought corn chowder and pumpkin muffins to potluck.  We also made multigrain bread, but that flopped on account of me reading the recipe wrong.  The soup went over very well.  The muffins went over very well. 

Both were vegan... no dairy!  And I am so glad that my friend Angela shared with me her recipe! I've never eaten corn chowder before and was pleasantly surprised.  With all the soups out there that others have shared with me, I was just surprised I've never tried this one.  Thank You Angela for sharing it with me.  Even my kids liked it.  I think I got more than a dash of cayenne in the recipe however, as my face was breaking out in a sweat when I ate it.  I recall shaking it on top of the soup and thinking... my that looks pretty and I think I was thinking it was paprika and just kept shaking to give it a pretty dusting on top... LOL.  I'll know not to do that again! 

The muffin recipe I got from allrecipes and I converted the white flour ingredient to ww flour and oats.  I also decreased the amount of sugar and used applesauce instead of oil.  I decreased the spice a bit... I just can't handle so much spice!  It still turned out well, with all my adjustments we got lots of pleasant comments at Potluck for Kate who made the recipe. 

Warmly, ~Melissa

glad you liked it!

Hey,

That recipe hardly ever fails to please. Glad you liked it. This is the first time I get to surf the internet since being in Africa.... the thing I miss the most is internet :-) I finally have a new way to post on my blog.... works better than anything, so far.

Blessings,

Angela
