Camp Out Chowder

February, 7, 1994


1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can turkey noodle soup
1 soup can water
1 can whole kernel corn, drained
1/2 c. instant milk

Combine in a pot over a camp fire. Serves 4

It's so cold out and camping season is not far off. Packing soups for camping trips is essential. I used what I had on hand and served it in clean empty soup cans. I save about 20 empty cans for sand castles, bait scoopers, dog poop scoops, all sorts of uses.
