Extraordinary flavor and SO easy! We LOVED this! I used lots of cayenne (double or triple) and also some in the bowls since we like spice! This is a huge pot and would serve 8 people - maybe six for an entree if you're really big eaters. The only change I would make is to use the whole onion next time. (Just a note: My grocery store didn't sell smaller cans of cream corn so I used an entire 14 3/4 ounce can. Also, my can of pumpkin was 15 ounces.) This is good any time of year - by itself or you could add cooked meat for more protein if you like! Another fantastic recipe from Brooke, made for the Photo Tag game. -
A nice soup with many pluses. Love that it is so low fat and that it has a vegetarian option. Also liked the creamy texture that the pumpkin gave the broth. Made as written letting them add cayenne to there bowls as not everyone likes cayenne. Next time will try adding some jalapeno and cilantro?? Over all a nice soup. Thanks so much for the post. -
great soup, I sauteed the onion with 2 tablespoon chopped garlic in butter firstly, I used half and half cream instead of skim milk, we enjoyed this thanks for sharing Brooke!

Delicious soup which was perfect for Halloween weekend! I added the optional cayenne - which gave it a spicy taste which we enjoyed! A very different and tasty version of corn chowder which we will be having again. Thanks for sharing! -
So easy and delicious! And it is such a beautiful fall color. I used all the cayenne, and loved it. After taking a few bites, I ran and got some nutmeg and sprinkled a little on it. I thought that made it even better! Thanks for the beautiful chowder! Made this for Please Review My Recipe Tag!

<br>I have been a member of Zaar for awhile now and found that I love it! I have tried so many recipes and many new foods that I never would have without Zaar.
<br>
<br>I work full-time at a university in Wisconsin, it allows me to travel a bit and see the rest of the state, I work with a lot a great people and am really happy in my job.

<br>When I'm not working, I spend time with my hubby and 12 year old son. My son has picked up my love for cooking, a few of the things he makes are - naan bread, cookies, and quick breads, I'm so proud of him! In our family we also have two cocker spaniels, our puppy Laci (above) and Peanut, that we adore like they were our children.
<br>
<br>We live in an old farm house that we are remodeling (did the library and the kitchen so far....) on the outskirts of town. Close enough where my hubby can bike to work in the summer, but far enough away from campus that we don't have to lock down our lawn ornaments in fear of college pranks!
