2002 Adapted Recipe - April Ferre - From Sunset's Cooking For Two ... Or Just For You Cookbook, 1980.
"I love my Mom's Clam Chowder; however, when you are cooking for one, her recipe makes up two weeks worth of chowder. I found this in a cookbook dedicated to smaller portions for one or two people. This recipe is a little richer than Mom's and quicker too, since it utilizes canned soup as a base. But it's hard to choose which one I actually prefer." - April Ferre
