Corn Chowder with Wild Rice

September 2, 2014 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 11 Comments

Hi Everyone,

September is National Whole Grain Month and today I teamed up with the Whole Grain Council to help convince you to “Make the Switch” to include more nutritious and delicious whole grains in your every day meals. I think that is pretty doable after all whole grains are healthy for you, tasty and doesn’t just mean wheat, but includes foods like quinoa, wild rice, cornmeal, rye, and bulgur. Think of all the fun recipes you can make with just those ingredients.  You know how I am a huge fan of quinoa!  🙂

So for today’s “Make the Switch” recipe I have  for you the perfect fall recipe, Corn Chowder with Wild Rice.
Corn Chowder with Wild Rice
This soup is just amazing. It’s creamy, filling, low-calorie, lots of vegetables and it has a slight kick of heat from the peppers and the best part a huge hit with the family. This was the first time they ever had corn chowder. Really? They have been missing out. When I told them what I was making I got ehhh, but then they had it and they couldn’t stop eating it. Needless to say I didn’t have leftovers. That’s when you know you made a recipe right!
Corn Chowder with Wild Rice
To make the soup I used fresh corn from the husks, but you can always use frozen too. Then I added carrots, mushrooms, onions, Pasilla Peppers, and jalapeno peppers. Yum!! Then I added some chicken broth, water, wild rice and to end the meal I used already cooked chicken. I cheated on the chicken and bought a rotisserie chicken. That made this recipe super easy. The cooking time is roughly an hour and you get 10 cups of this beautiful soup. Oh and get this only 137 calories a cup. Who loves ya baby?

I entered this recipe to the Whole Grain Council to win a trip to Boston in November. I have been to Boston once and I hope to make it there again. It’s such a beautiful city filled with so much history and wonderful food. Plus I can win cash prizes!  So I need your vote! But really, try the recipe and let me know what you think. I want your taste-buds to choose the winner of this contest, not popularity.

    Hard to describe how perfect this soup is. I pinned it for later. Today was ‘later’ when my 8 year old looked through my Soups board, saw this, read the recipe and told me that he wanted your soup for dinner. It is FANTASTIC!! I shared some with friends who had the same raves that we had. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!

      Hi Betsy! How sweet that your 8 year old picked out my soup from your board. I am so happy that you and your friends loved it. It’s one of my favorites too. Thank you so much for the compliment, you made my day.

    Hi, I’ve been using your recipes for about 2 months now and have been loving everything, but this is the first one that didn’t turn out quite right for me. I halved the ingredients but otherwise followed all the instructions and after maybe 45 minutes or so there was no liquid left in the pot. Should I have covered it while simmering, or maybe reduced cooking time?

    I ended up pouring another cup of chicken broth in, along with the half and half. The result was still delicious but less “soup” and more succatash. My wife loved it so I’d like to make it again but this time do it right. Thanks!

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep clea Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep cleaning in my kitchen on Monday. I washed the floors, cabinets, counters and decluttered the countertops. It feels so good and everything is so bright and clean. Well….
💖
My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.
💖
What do you do to get inspiration?

I’m sharing heart shaped cinnamon rolls that I made this weekend. I got the idea to make them from my friend Heidi @eleanorrosehome. She made the most delicious looking cinnamon rolls, that I couldn’t resist to make. So perfect for Valentines Day and sooooo easy! 
❤️
I took a can of Trader Joe’s cinnamon rolls and unraveled them, if that makes sense, and rolled them up like a palmier cookie. So fun! You could add food coloring to the frosting to make it pink and add sprinkles. Super cute! You can follow step by step recipe on Heidi’s Instagram page! 
❤️
Thank you Heidi for sharing the recipe. This was so fun!
❤️
Would you rather get chocolate or flowers for Valentines Day?
