"I always have trouble finding kosher, parve or vegetarian recipes for chowder because they always call for bacon or ham or seafood. I've made this recipe as corn chowder in this form, and also as fish chowder with different types of fish instead of the corn. The rest of the recipe pretty much stays the same. More vegetables can be added at your discretion, depending on what you like! :-)"
