Mama Lila’s Helpful Tips

  • For added nutrition, consider adding chopped carrots or celery along with the other ingredients. They will enhance the texture and flavor while offering more healing properties.
  • If you prefer a thicker chowder, simply mash some of the corn with a fork before adding the cream. Every choice you make can bring more joy to this dish.
  • Always taste as you go. Cooking is an art of balance, and your palate is your greatest guide.

Peaceful Variations to Explore
