Cream-Free Spicy Corn and Soyrizo Chowder
with poblano peppers / zucchini
Our original cream-free chowder has been a long time favorite in many of our community members’ kitchens, so we decided it was time for an updated version. This time around, we’re using a different combination of vegetables, but still bringing you the option to get that creamy chowder texture without adding a drop of heavy cream.

Make
- Heat a Dutch oven with oil over medium heat. Add poblano peppers and onions with a pinch of salt. Saute until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Add soyrizo and saute until heated through, breaking it apart as it cooks, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
- Add vinegar to pan and deglaze, scraping up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan.
- Pour stock into pan and add potatoes and zucchini. Cover pan with a lid (to prevent stock from reducing) and simmer, covered, until potatoes are tender, ~20 minutes. (Optional step: Use an immersion blender to blend a small portion of the soup right in the Dutch oven. This will give the soup a creamy texture without needing the addition of cream.)
- Remove pan from heat and stir in corn and adobo sauce. (Note: If you are concerned about spice, taste the soup first and only add adobo sauce until it is spiced to your liking.) Season with some salt and pepper.
- Divide soup between serving bowls. Top with cilantro and yogurt. Enjoy!
