Winter is the time for stews and soups. Before furnaces and insulation, we can imagine our ancestors circled around a steaming pot, waiting for hot broth to be spooned into their waiting bowls. Well, you've got a warm home (we assume), but that doesn't mean you don't need a little extra heat. This chowder of corn, potatoes, and carrot provides hearty vegetable warmth, enough to keep you going throughout the cold nights. Cheesy bread on the side? That's just bonus goodness.
