Pick up Half Baked Harvest over the summer and have been waiting for cooler weather to try to put my own spin on some of the recipes. Set my sights on the Chipotle Corn Chowder today. My take on it was bold, sweet, & spicy.
I smoked all the vegetables. Substituted vidalia onions to get a nice sweetness. That was needed to help balance the dish as I added habaneros & serranos. Garnished as prescribed in recipe but substituted crema fresca for greek yogurt.
The result was better than I hoped for. This soup now sits alone at the top of my soup power rankings. Wife loved it as well, even with the pretty substantial heat. She took one spoonful out of pot and then filled her bowl with it and said she will have the Zuppa Toscana I made for her tomorrow.
Yes, I made 3 soups today. Those two and birria. It is #soupszn and the freezer needs some quarts for quick and easy reheat meals.
