Samuel’s Corn Chowder

Hi 🙂 I am Samuel Ovcharenko, Victoria Ovcharenko’s oldest son. I am a picky eater so sometimes I make my own food. My favorite soup is corn chowder and I am going to share it with you! This is my first post on Welcome2OurTable.com and hopefully there will be more to come. This is a good way to learn new cooking skills (like using a knife and a stove). I like corn chowder because it’s creamy, it’s nice on a cold day, it has corn and it warms me up inside and out. Every kid (and grown-up) should try it! Check out my Mom’s Creamy Corn Chowder recipe if you want to try the grown-up version.
