Yummy chowder! I doubled the recipe & used half the cheddar. Sautéd the potatoes & onion in the bacon grease instead of butter. Served with the green onions, bacon & some parmesean sprinkled on top. The wine was a great touch. Adults loved this but the kids didn't finish, though they loved the smell.

Superb! This soup could not be easier to make. I made as directed, adding a bit more cheese, because we are really cheesy people ; ) All the flavors of this soup blend very well together and I would not change a thing about it. Serve with either soda crackers or French bagette and a tossed green salad for the perfect meal. For a super and wonderful week night or weekend supper, make this soup and you will not be sorry ; ) Lazyme, you have some awesome recipes!
