My entire family absolutely loves this chowder!!! I made one addition to it which I felt made it much more hardy... I added seasoned boiled chicken breast meat and that makes it really stick to your ribs. It is perfect for the cold nights and it is always ready when I return home from work when I put it in the crockpot to simmer. I let it cook overnight and all day and that allows all the flavors to really intertwine and is really good.

This is a wonderful recipe on a cold day. I did change two things which I think make it just a tad better. First, I used the Three Cheese Progresso Recipe Starter rather than the Garlic, and then added garlic powder. Second, I cook the bacon separately and crumble it on the top while serving to give an added crunch!
