It's been a while since anyone has posted ANYTHING on here, so I thought I'd throw something out there! This has been a cold weather favorite of mine for a couple years. Seems like I got it from a Better Homes and Gardens book, but I'm not sure. Anyway, I'm not taking credit for the recipe, but it's delicious!
Caribbean Clam Chowder
¼ c red pepper
¼ c celery
¼ c sweet onion
2 medium sweet potatoes peeled and cubed
1-2 cloves minced garlic.
1 10 oz can diced tomatoes with green chilies. (you can get mild, medium, or hot..I recommend medium if you still want to feel your lips after your done)
1 6.5 oz can of chopped or minced clams.
1/8 tsp dried thyme.
- drain clams and set aside the juice. And enough water to the juice to make 2 cups.
- put diced veggies and potatoes and garlic into a pot with clam juice and water. Put in thyme. Boil until veggies are soft.
- Add tomatoes and clams. Heat through.
