Ingredients in Easy Chunky Corn Chowder

• butter
• onions
• celery
• sausage
• cream style corn
• salt
• chicken broth
• potatoes
• corn 
• milk
• diced tomatoes

How to make Easy Chunky Corn Chowder

In a large pot, over medium low heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Add onions and celery and cook until tender. Do not brown.

In the meantime, using a large skillet, over medium heat, cook sausage. You have two options. You can thinly slice sausage and brown on both sides or break up meat and cook until brown. Regardless, reduce heat on your skillet to low to keep your sausage warm.

Now you have to add these ingredients to the large pot with the celery and onions in it. Add cans of cream style corn, salt, pepper, potatoes and chicken broth. Simmer, covered, until potatoes are fork tender, around 20 minutes.

Add corn, milk or cream, tomatoes (if using) and then sausage. Heat, but do not boil. Serve with crackers or a crusty bread.  Enjoy!
