fish and corn chowder

Recipe by

If you prefer you can use fresh carrots, sliced, and fresh peas; and increase cooking time to about 20 minutes (until vegetables are tender). I've also made this chowder, adding a small jar of clam juice just before adding vegetables and whitefish. This weekend was Blizzard 2016. I decided to make the chowder and was out of frozen mixed vegetables. I used a package of frozen creamed spinach. This is now our favorite.
