Not Quite Vegan Corn Chowder (Vegetarian)

1st Ingredients:

Creamed Corn

2-12oz bags frozen corn
1 block cream cheese (low fat)
1/4 cup Earth Balance
salt and pepper to taste

The margarine and cream cheese were melted in microwave and poured over corn in crock pot.  Cooked on low for four hours.


I had ~2 cups of this mixture remaining after Easter dinner.

2nd Ingredients:

2 cups leftover creamed corn
2 carrots
2 potatoes
1/2 onion
4 celery ribs
1 cup grated cheddar cheese (white)
Salt and pepper to taste

Chop carrots and potatoes. Boil water.  Place carrots and potatoes into boiling water until firm but tender and drain.  Sauté onions and celery in olive oil until onions translucent.  Place all vegetables together, including the corn mixture into a 5 quart pot.  In another pot, mix almond milk and 1/4 cup white whole wheat flour.  Continuously stir over medium heat until thickens.  Add thickened "milk" to the vegetables.  Add 1 cup of grated white cheddar cheese. Add chopped parsley.  Heat mixture over medium until cheese melts and chowder is hot throughout.
