"This recipe is inspired by the Atlantic Ocean and is so good we designed the recipe to make enough for now and tuck some away in the freezer for a cold day. Perfect to serve with Cheddar cheese biscuits, as part of a Mother's Day brunch or an elegant appetizer for dinner, your seafood loving guests will be forever indebted for this seafood loaded, creamy chowder from the sea!..."
