Flavorful Corn Chowder image

Here in the "Cornhusker State", we make lots of dishes with corn! Even my kids love this soup, I've discovered. Although we live in the city, we love to spend time at my parents' cabin on a lake surrounded by farms and cornfields.

I'm not a fan of the cornbread croutons. I think they're a bit too dry.
