Grace’s eating habits boggle my mind. I think I’ve mentioned this before, but she will only eat prepackaged foods at day care. (For the semi-crunchy homemade babyfood chef, this is a painful fact.) At home, it’s a whole other story, however, as she gladly gobbles down whatever her dad and I are eating. Tonight, we had homemade potato chowder. It was so yummy. Grace ate a lot – a whole grown up-sized portion – without the garnishes.

Potato Chowder
 

Ingredients
  • 8 cup raw potatoes, diced
  • 1 cup onion, chopped
  • 43 oz fat-free, reduced-sodium chicken broth (3 of the regular size cans)
  • 1 can canned condensed cream of chicken soup
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 8 oz fat-free cream cheese

Instructions
  1. In 5 QT slow cooker, combine diced potatoes, chopped onion, chicken broth, cream of chicken soup and pepper.
  2. Cook 8-10 hours on low.
  3. Add cream cheese and cook another 20 minutes stirring occasionally.
  4. Top with chopped scallions, crumbled bacon, and shredded cheddar.

Notes
If you’re a WW follower, you’ll be happy to know that it’s only 3 points for a 1 cup serving. A tablespoon of crumbled bacon is ZERO points, and ⅛ cup of low fat shredded cheddar is 1 or 2 points, depending on the brand.
