  • Choose fresh cod, shrimp, salmon and scallops for the best flavor and texture.
  • If possible, use fresh potatoes instead of canned for the best result.

  • Substitute 8 ounces of white fish for the cod fish. This substitution will provide a milder flavor to the chowder and will still provide a good source of protein.
  • Substitute 2 cans of low-fat cream of celery soup for the condensed cream of celery soup. This substitution will reduce the amount of fat and calories in the chowder, making it a healthier option.

Vegetarian Seafood Chowder Replace the seafood with 8 ounces of firm tofu (cubed), 1 cup of sliced mushrooms, 1 cup of sliced carrots, 1 cup of sliced celery, and 1 cup of sliced zucchini. Simmer for 40 minutes until the vegetables are cooked.



Garlic Bread: Serve this comforting chowder with a side of garlic bread for a delicious combination of flavors and textures. The crunchy bread pairs perfectly with the creamy chowder and the garlic adds a hint of savory flavor.


Crusty Rolls: Complement this chowder with a side of crusty rolls for a comforting and flavorful meal. The light and airy rolls provide a nice contrast to the creamy chowder and the buttery texture adds a richness to the dish. The rolls also provide a great vehicle for dipping into the chowder.
