Healthy and Hearty Potato Corn Chowder in the Slow Cooker

Vegan Potato and Corn Chowder made in the slow cooker makes a healthy and hearty meal to comfort your family on a chilly day.

Besides all of the other drama going on in the world, it has been raining off and on for the better part of two weeks. This Californian is getting a bit depressed! I need some comfort foods, like this soup.

Just dump the ingredients in the slow cooker, go about your day and then add a little coconut milk a little before serving. Easy peasy comfort on a spoon.

You can swap chicken broth for the vegetable broth, use whole milk for the coconut milk and maybe add some crumbled bacon if you want. But it is pretty fabulous as is.
