Here’s one of my favorite main-dish soups: Catch of the Sea Chowder

This is a wonderful, hearty chowder that makes soup a main dish. I love it using a variety of seafood — a little fish, a few shrimp, a few scallops. The original recipe calls for using Campbell’s Potato Soup, however I have changed the recipe to eliminate the processed ingredient.

Ingredients

1 cup Celery sliced
1/2 cup Onion chopped
1 tsp. Olive oil
1 large Potato diced to 1/2 inch dice
1/2 gallon Fat free milk
1 lb. White fish fillet cut in 1″ pieces
1/2 pound Shrimp raw
1/2 pound Bay scallops
1 can (8 oz.) Corn drained
1/8 tsp. Black pepper
1 medium Bay leaf
3 ea Eggs hard boiled, optional

Instructions
Sauté celery and onion in olive oil until tender in a sauce pan.

Add potato, milk, corn pepper and bay leaf. Simmer 10 minutes or until the potato is done.

With a slotted spoon, scoop out half the potato and corn and set aside. Remove and dispose of the bay leaf. Use an immersion blender to blend the remaining milk, potatoes and corn in the sauce pan.

Return the potatoes and corn that had been set aside to the sauce pan. Add the fish to the pan and simmer about 10 minutes or until the fish is done. Stir often.

ADDITIONAL SUGGESTION: You might try picking up a rotisserie chicken from the deli section. You can have it as is with a baked sweet potato, or shred the chicken and make quesedillas.

CHEESE ROLLS

2 cups flour
1 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup butter
6 oz grated cheddar cheese
3/4 cup milk

Preheat oven to 450°F.
Sift dry ingredients (except for cheese) into a bowl, mixing well. Cut in shortening. Make a well in the center of the flour and pour in the milk all at once.

Form a ball of dough and knead lightly on a lightly floured surface. Roll out 1/4 inch thick and sprinkle with cheese generously. Roll up, jelly-roll style and slice into pieces about 1 inch thick.

Place onto a greased cookie sheet and bake at 450°F for 12-18 minutes or until golden brown.
