This was Adam's idea and when he didn't like the recipe I found online for them I told him it was his job to make dinner his way. So he did. And this is what we had. Very delicious. :)

Potato-Crab Chowder

From Slow Cooker Magic in Minutes



Ingredients:
frozen corn
hash browns
carrots
thyme
garlic-pepper seasoning
chicken broth
water
evaporated milk
cornstarch
crabmeat
scallions

Comments:
This is a totally simple recipe. It's only a four hour one so I made it while I was home for lunch. Veggies and broth go in the slow cooker with the seasonings and it cooks for four hours. When I got home I added the cornstarch and evaporated milk to make it into a chowder rather than a soup. At the very end you add the meat and scallions. Easy Peasy. Except that Adam wasn't feeling good because of a bad nacho experience so he hasn't even eaten any of it yet so it might suck. We'll see. And I forgot I had no frozen corn so I just put in mixed veggies and left out the additional carrots.
