I thought this was a great slow-cooker recipe. I added some garlic, too.

i am giving this 5 stars, but that is with a few modifications. i agree that it would have been rather bland as the recipe is. i added about 2 tblsp of Old Bay seasoning as it was cooking as well as extra bay leaves. i also added a bunch of Chipotle Chili Pepper towards the end. this was great! it gave it a kick and lots of flavor.i am not sure how much i actually added as i did it to taste. i would definitely recommend this recipe with these changes.

This Corn Chowder with Shrimp recip is one of those comfort foods that we all love so much. It's simple to make, plus being budget-friendly. You can kick it up a notch using cayenne pepper. Wonderful when served with salad and garlic toast.

Hated this recipe! No flavor and huge waste of veggies and shrimp. Very thin soup, not a chowder at all.
