The BEST Seafood Chowder!

I love both seafood and chowders. So, the combination is one of my favourites.
This seafood chowder was SO creamy and delicious but I also have a still yummy but much healthier version.


Slow Cooker Seafood Chowder
serves 6

1/2 cup diced celery
1/2 cup diced carrots
1/3 cup diced onion
1/4 cup bacon bits
1 cup scallops
1 cup shrimp
3 cups salmon
2 cups lobster (or crab)
seasoning (basil, garlic chives, sea salt, etc)
2 cups whipping cream
1/2 cup cream cheese
2 cups milk
4 tbsp corn starch mixed with 4 tbsp broth

Add all ingrediants (except corn starch mix) to slow cooker and cook, uncovered, on low for 6 hours.

Add corn starch mixture and cook, uncovered, on low for 1 hour.

Serve with rolls.

* To make it much healthier, replace the whipping cream and milk with 2 cups skim milk and 2 cups water mixed with 1/2 cup dry seafood or clam chowder mix)
