Corn Chowder

I am putting this here just so I can "pin" this recipe on Pinterest. (If you're looking for recipes, you won't find them here regularly. In fact, I almost never post here, and when I do, it's about politics.)

I haven't found this recipe online anywhere. But it's a favorite in

my  actual recipe box, but I have an easier time finding recipes I regularly use on Pinterest. 

This soup is hearty and delicious. The sausage gives it a little kick which is offset by the sweetness of the creamed corn. I like to use spicy sausage, the kind you find in frozen rolls at the grocery store. The recipe that follows makes a ton. It can easily be halved.

This takes a little more than an hour to prepare and cook.

2 lbs. pork sausage
6 medium potatoes, chopped in large chunks
4 celery stalks, chopped 
2 chopped onions
4 cans of creamed corn
2 cups milk
Up to 1/2 cup of water

Brown the sausage and remove it from the pan. Leave as much grease behind as possible. Add a little water -- up to 1/2 cup and add the potatoes, celery and onions to the pot. Cover and let the vegetables steam until they are partially soft. (This will take between 20 and 30 minutes). Add the cans of creamed corn and continue cooking until potatoes are soft. 

15 minutes prior to serving, add the milk and sausage.
