This soup is freezer-friendly, so it's a great option for meal prepping. Just cook a big batch on the weekend, and then freeze it in individual portions for easy weekday meals.

I'm allergic to dairy, so I used almond milk instead of regular milk in this recipe. It worked great, and the soup was still very creamy.

I served this soup with a side of crusty bread, and it was the perfect meal for a cold winter night.

This chowder is a great way to use up leftover corn on the cob. Just cut the kernels off the cob and add them to the soup.

I made this soup in my slow cooker, and it turned out perfectly. I just threw all the ingredients in the slow cooker in the morning, and dinner was ready when I got home from work.

I'm not a fan of wild rice, so I used brown rice instead. It worked just as well, and the soup was still very delicious.

I'm not a big fan of ham, so I substituted cooked chicken instead. It worked great, and the soup was still very flavorful.

This recipe is a great starting point for creating your own custom chowder. I added some chopped carrots and celery, and it turned out fantastic.

I found that this chowder was a bit too thick for my liking, so I added some extra milk to thin it out. It was perfect after that!

This chowder was a bit too salty for my taste, but that's easily remedied by reducing the amount of salt in the recipe. Other than that, it was a delicious and satisfying meal.
