Notes

Tips
For a thicker chowder, you can puree half the mixture before adding the corn.
Fresh corn gives the Vegan Sweet Potato and Corn Chowder a delightful crunch, but you can also use frozen corn if fresh is unavailable.
If you like a little spice, add a pinch of chili flakes or a dash of hot sauce.
Serving Suggestions
Vegan Sweet Potato and Corn Chowder is best served hot.
Pair it with a slice of crusty whole grain bread or a fresh salad to make it a meal.
For an extra touch of zest, squeeze a wedge of lime over the top before eating.
