Audrey's Corn Chowder

This is a hearty wintertime soup, delicious with white rolls topped with herbed butter. If you are looking to skimp on calories, look elsewhere.

Ingredients:

1 lb Jimmy Dean Lean Pork Sausage
4 C yukon gold potatoes, diced small
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp marjoram
1/2 tsp pepper
2 C water
1 can creamed corn (or substitute with frozen corn and add a little more milk)
1 can evaporated milk
Chicken Broth
Flour

Brown the sausage in a large stock part and drain on paper towels. In the same pot add the potatoes, salt and water. Boil until the potatoes are tender (less then 10 minutes). Add spices, corn, and evaporated milk and cook over medium heat until thickened. You may need to make a roux out of chicken broth and flour to thicken it. In fact, this will be likely. So be prepared.

You may also want to add a dash of cayenne. So good on a gray, chilly day!
