Fresh Corn and Sausage Chowder
"Though this can easily be made with frozen corn for a delicious meal on a cold night, I think the fresh-off-the-cob-corn tastes so much better! I've made this two summers in a row now. A fairly simple yet hearty recipe, it goes well with homemade biscuits!"

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I just got married in April 2012, so I'm a fairly new cook! I enjoy trying new recipes. My husband tells me I'm an amazing cook, which makes me feel good because he's a some what picky eater. My sisters told me about this site and from what I've seen, it's pretty awesome! Life is good, married life is even better, and God is Great!
