After seeing the cocoa exchange on another thread thought it might be a good idea to make a spot to exchange cooking recipes in general. I personally like to cook and like to try new recipes. So, to begin, below is a vegetarian friendly soup.
Chipotle Corn Chowder
Ingredients
3 1/2 cups vegetable broth 1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
3 cups frozen whole kernel corn 1 1/3 cups evaporated fat free milk
2 cups chopped green bell pepper 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups chopped red bell pepper 1 package (12oz) Morningstar Chipotle Black Bean Crumbles
2 cups sliced carrots 8 ounces American cheese
1 teaspoon ground cumin cut up parsley sprigs (optional)
Directions
1. In dutch oven combine broth, corn, peppers, carrots, cumin, and cayenne pepper. bring to boil. Reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 5 minutes. (if you don't have a dutch oven, use large sauce pan)
2. In small bowl whisk together milk and flour. Stir into the hot mixture in saucepan. Bring to boil. Stir in crumbles. cook over medium heat until crumbles are hot, stirring frequently. Add cheese, stirring until melted.
3. Ladle chowder into bowls. Garnish with fresh parsley sprigs.
Alterations
You can swap out the bean crumbles for any ground meat.
You could do this in a crock pot just cook every thing but milk, flour, and cheese together on low for 5hrs. When nearing done, ladle out some of the broth into a saucepan and add milk/flour mix into hot broth to make a gravy-like broth. Return the gravy mix to crock pot and let cook another 1/2 hour then add cheese and mix until melted.

Just enough of a Bastard to be worth liking.
