Pea and Sweet Corn Chowder

Ingredients

• Fresh parsley (2 tablespoons, chopped)
• Salt and pepper (to taste)
• Milk (1 cup)
• Vegetable broth (4 cups)
• Frozen sweet corn (2 cups)
• Frozen peas (2 cups)
• Potatoes (2 medium, peeled and diced)
• Garlic (2 cloves, minced)
• Onion (1 medium, diced)
• Butter (2 tablespoons)

Instructions

1. In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat.
2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
3. Add the diced potatoes, frozen peas, and frozen sweet corn. Stir to combine.
4. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
5. Using an immersion blender or a regular blender, blend about half of the soup until smooth. This will help thicken the chowder.
6. Return the blended soup to the pot and stir in the milk. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes to heat through.
8. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
