Easy and quick to prepare this delicious creamy chowder is flavorful and hearty. It is ideal for a weeknight dinner. The versatility of this recipe allows you to make it with whatever root-cellar vegetables you have on hand, as well as aromatics like celery, leeks, garlic, fresh and dried herbs. This chowder recipe can be gluten and dairy free, see notes for instructions. You can use all shellfish, which is what I did, or just fish. What I love about this recipe is that you get to make your chowder based on personal taste and preferences.
