This Chipotle Corn Chowder is quick to make and full of smoky chipotle flavor. It’s one of my all time favorite soups and tastes amazing. You’ll love how cheesy and delicious it is; definitely restaurant-worthy!

Hey there y’all, and happy first day of March! It’s hard to believe we are already two months into the New Year. I’m happy it’s March though, as that means spring is right around the corner.

It’s been a pretty cold winter here in Texas (or colder than I would like it to be!) so I’m really looking forward to some warmer weather. Plus my hubby’s birthday, my birthday, and our anniversary are all this month, so we have lots to celebrate!

Now onto the important thing here; this Chipotle Corn Chowder!????

I created this recipe to model one of my favorite soups from a local restaurant here in town. They are known for their awesome tacos, but I have come to adore their other menu offerings, including their Chipotle Corn Chowder.

I knew I had to try and make it at home, so I did! I’ve made this about five times now, and already have it on the menu again for us to enjoy next week.

It’s THAT good. You have to try it!!
