Wonderful recipe Dancing Cook, it was awesome. We really enjoyed this tasty chowder. The base was silky, smooth and delicious. Made exactly as written, and I would not change a thing. What a great way to use up leftover ham. A great meal for this cold and stormy night. Served with homemade sour cream biscuits for a terrific meal. Made for Menu tag game.

This is an easy, "use-up-your-leftovers" great tasting recipe!! I didnt have any potatoes, so I left thos eout, but I did add some chopped carrots. Instead of cayenne pepper I used some chili powder which gave this a little kick. I'm glad that I got to use up our ham other than just grilled ham and cheese sandwiches.....thx again!!!

Welcome! I joined this website in 2001, as a new wife and Mom of a 1 y/o and I was 28 yrs old and did not know about cooking. I found this website cause I searched the web and wanted to find a good recipe for carrots! I found that recipe and so much more here over the years. I learned so much from this website and opened up my eyes to other recipes. I now am 46 y/o. I am now divorced and my then 1 y/o son is now a Marine. I have a wonderful man in my life that loves and appreciates my cooking and I thank this site for all of its help. I still come here for recipes. I hope you like my recipes and your family enjoys them also....there is many here and I love to pass them on.
