Sweet Potato Chowder

I usually use regular potatoes when making chowder but I was out so I tried sweet potatoes and OH MY GOODNESS I fell in love!! It was so good! The recipe is very similar to my

Potato, Corn, and Tomato Stew but the flavors are completely different thanks to the sweet potatoes.

Sweet Potato Chowder Recipe

• 4 sweet potatoes, chopped

• 3 cups of corn

• 1 can of stewed tomatoes

• 1 T onion powder (I was out of onions but you could use 1/2 of a fresh onion, chopped)

• 1 can of coconut milk

• 1 cup of water

• 4 cloves of garlic, minced (or 1 T garlic powder)

• 1 T paprika

• 1/2 T liquid smoke

• Salt to taste

Add all the ingredients to a pot, instant pot, or crockpot. *If using a pot, bring to a boil then simmer until potatoes are cooked through (about 25 minutes). *If in instant pot, cook on Manuel for 15 min and allow to naturally release for 10. *If in crockpot. Cook on high for around 4 hours. Once cooked, add half to a blender and briefly blend (can still have some chunks). Add back to the rest of the chowder and enjoy. You could use an immersion blender instead of the blender. Add salt to taste. I like to serve it with rice or quinoa and top with green onions and red chili flakes. I also love the combo of sweet potatoes and Franks Hot Sauce-highly recommend giving that a try if you have it!
