The Best Vegan Corn Chowder
|
Hey, Reader, I have several vegan soups on the blog, but there’s nothing quite like a classic corn chowder. A good creamy vegan potato soup or potato leek soup comes close, but the addition of fresh corn really takes things up a notch. While it’s one of my more expensive recipes on the blog at about $3.40 per serving, this hearty vegan corn chowder was originally inspired by Monkey Pod Kitchen’s Coco Corn Chowder that was $15 per serving (!) for an appetizer sized bowl. So with that in mind, this restaurant-worthy chowder is almost 5x cheaper!
It's naturally thick and creamy, gluten-free, hearty, and great for meal prep (I think the flavors even better the next day)! 😋 Enjoy! Nicolette Wax | Home-Cooked Roots
