I'm not a fan of corn, so I omitted it from the recipe. The chowder was still delicious.

This chowder is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I added some chopped carrots, celery, and potatoes.

I'm allergic to shellfish, so I substituted chicken for the crawfish and shrimp. It turned out great!

I followed the recipe exactly and the chowder turned out bland. I think it needs more seasoning.

This chowder is a bit too spicy for my taste, but it's still very good. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper next time.

I'm not a big fan of seafood, but I really enjoyed this chowder. The flavors are well-balanced and the crawfish and shrimp are tender.
