Recipe(tried): Corn Chowder (low fat, crock pot)

CORN CHOWDER

"Canned corn becomes a creamy treat when pureed with potatoes and low-fat milk. Chives add a sprinkle of color and a fresh finishing touch."

2 cans (15 oz each) whole kernel corn, drained
3 potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 onion, chopped
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 cups 1 percent milk
1/4 cup margarine
Fresh chives, sliced (optional, for garnish)

Place corn, potatoes, onion, and broth in 4-quart or larger slow cooker. Stir to combine.

Cover crock pot. Cook on LOW 7 to 9 hours.

Let cool slightly, about 10 minutes. Puree half of the batch in blender.

Return pureed mixture to slow cooker and stir in milk and margarine. Cover. Cook on HIGH 1 more hour.

Garnish with chives, if desired.
