What is Vegetable Chowder?

Vegetable Chowder is a delectable thick and cheesy soup where vegetables and garlic are cooked in a white sauce. The white sauce is loaded with parmesan cheese which makes it creamy, and the herbs used to make this soup gives it a fantastic flavour.

Packed with the goodness of vegetables like onion, carrot, broccoli, potatoes, its is a great option for your weeknight dinners along with a toasted bread. Here, I have used Chicken broth to make the Chowder, but you can also vegetable broth instead.

Vegetable Chowder recipe is a perfect soup to make on a winter day or when you want something light for dinner which is delicious and healthy at the same time.

It is also a great option, in case you are looking for Gluten Free weeknight dinner recipe or just to serve as a side dish during your Brunch. Also if you are looking for a Vegan option, you can use Almond or Soy milk instead of Dairy milk.

Usually, Sea Food, Chicken, Mutton Chowders are very famous, especially the Clam Chowders. But Tomato Chowder is also made and is a great option for vegetarians. But you can always add vegetables, just like I did here and believe me it came out delicious. You can even make a creamy Corn Chowder or just add Tofu, Red Bell Pepper, Celery in your Vegetable Chowder.

What to serve Vegetable Chowder with?

This Vegetable Chowder can be served along with Toasted Bread or Croutons by the side for a hearty weeknight dinner.

You can also serve it along with Garlic Bread or a Sandwich for your dinner.

    Perfect chowder to be dipped with the toasted bread. Maybe I thought I can do away with the chicken stock and goes in veg stock to make it more of a vegetarian dish.
