"This recipe can also be made with clams but we like the salmon version better. It is a very easy soup to make and can even be made on a week night for a light dinner. The original recipe came from Canadian Living."

Thanks for a great recipe. I added some chopped, roasted red bell peppers and some mild, roasted green chile chopped which gave the chowder a wonderful touch of color and a subtle flavor enhancement. This recipe is a keeper.

I adapted the recipe a little, using lobster instead of the salmon. It turned out great, with rave reviews from my guests.

I live with my husband, four cats, and a sweet mutt named Jada in Scarborough, Ontario, where I work as an elementary school administrative assistant. I have a 31 year old daughter who lives with her boyfriend in nearby Don Mills, along with my sweet granddogs, Frankie and Turbo. I would have to say that my passion is animals, since I have so many of them! <img src=http://images.quizilla.com/H/h0t5auce/1108834307_brown_answer.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/532663/cookswithcattitude.JPG alt= /> <img src=http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r271/copperhorse58/CalendarGirlsSwap2009.jpg alt= /> If I had a month off work to do what I please, I would first catch up on my sleep and then just have fun - see a few movies and maybe take a couple of short trips - something that wouldn't break the bank - lol!
