Indulgent tasting chowder that really is full of healthy ingredients. This makes a BIG pot of soup. My husband loved it so much he insisted on packaging up a serving to take to his mother. The only changes I made were to use 1 tsp basil and 1 tsp oregano rather than the dill and to add some fresh mushrooms I had on hand. This is going in the permanent file, Margaret. It's delicious even though all I had was 4 ounces of Christmas gift smoked salmon packs.

Rich tasting chowder without the cream! I didn't have any smoked salmon on hand, so I used 1 lb of frozen salmon that I thawed out, baked with salt,pepper, cajun seasoning and oil for 15 min @ 450 F and cooled, then flaked. Like the others, I used 1 tsp each of oregano and basil instead of the dill. I also added 1/2 tsp of liquid smoke for depth. Absolutely, delicious! Thanks for sharing a great recipe, Margaret3!

Very good and quick recipe. I changed the seasoning to 1 tsp each of parsley, oregano and basil and 1 tsp Herby and a dash of Emeril's essence. I also increased the water to 3 cups, and added a can of whole corn with liquid because I didn't have creamed. I added a tsp of butter and 1/4 cup cream to make it creamy right before serving. It turned out amazing!

It's a fabulous foodie city, with new restaurants constantly opening. Travel is very important to me, and we do a lot of that. My photography "habit" and travel go together nicely, as does a growing passion for birding and its associated travel.
