This easy corn chowder recipe uses frozen whole-kernel corn and gets extra heartiness from low-fat chicken sausage.

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon butter

1/2 cup finely chopped onion

2 cups cubed peeled yukon gold potato

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon black pepper

2 cups fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth

1 cup water

2 cups frozen whole-kernel corn, thawed

1/2 package (about 6 ounces) spicy low-fat chicken sausage, sliced

1/2 cup 2% reduced-fat milk

1/4 cup reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese

2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Directions:

1. Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion; cook 2 1/2 minutes or until soft. Stir in potato and next 5 ingredients (through corn); bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 15 minutes or until potato is soft. Remove 2 cups, purée, and return to pan.
2. Stir in sausage and milk over low heat; cook until thick (about 5 minutes). Remove from heat. Garnish with cheese and parsley.
