Thoughts: We really enjoyed this spicy chowder! It was pretty thick, not entirely like a real creamy chowder, but a good twist on a soup. We would make it again!
Also: You may have already noticed, but I am only going to do Simply Soupy every other week from now on! I have been making soups weekly since January (and don’t plan on stopping!) , so by now there are some favorites I want to repeat for Rust and me, so I am not going to be trying a new soup every week anymore.
