Home Made Corn and Potato Chowder..


1c. Heavy Whipping Cream
3c. Milk (i use 1%)
4c. Mixed Frozen Veggies (Carrots, Peas and Corn)
4c. Diced Potatoes (i like the baby reds, leave the skin on)
1/2 tsp. Pepper
1/4 tsp. Crushed Red Pepper (HOT!!) i sometimes use more depending what i am in the mood for)
1 2/4 c. Water
1/2 c. Minced Onion
3 tsp. Salt. (more to taste.)
2 tbs. Butter 

My grandmother said never boil it.. i do.. it comes out fine. she is insane. but you add all the ingredients and then ... i usually boil it for about 45 mins. during which i stand over it and stir it every five min. so the milk doesn't get thick on top.  i never can wait to eat it.. but G-Ma Norma all ways left it to sit over night and reheated it the next day, i do agree it is better when it sits over night.. but who wants to wait that long?  and btw.. REFRIGERATE over night if you have the patience.
