Crock Pot Chicken Corn Chowder

Panhandle Sam's Note:

I googled and found this recipe, then tweaked it a little bit. We tried it tonight and it's a very tasty dish. I am a new cook, so what I like about the recipe itself is that there's a little more to it than just throwing everything in there. It's simple, and it makes it more fun than other crock pot dishes.

Delicious and easy! The changes I made was using 1 can of cream of potato and 1 can of cream of chicken soups and also used fat-free half-and-half. Thanks for sharing!

Simple and wonderful. I used leftover grilled chicken, cooked it in the pan with the onions. I added some thyme along with the dill, and cooked it on HIGH for 2-3 hours. So yummy on this chilly day. I heard you could use a can of creamed corn to make it thicker, although I thought the thickness was just great.

This was SO good! I made a few changes. I used cream of chicken soup, all purpose seasoning and added hard boiled eggs and salt and pepper. It was delicious! and we have a bunch of leftovers for lunch now, thanks! we'll defnitely make this again!
