Fall is in the air...Recipe #A16 Corn Chowder

With the weather getting a bit cooler, I thought a nice chowder would warm up those chilly nights. Personally, I love the warmer weather, but I'll take the nice change. I love to go for rides over the weekends when the leaves begin to change. Even though I still believe in my heart that I belong on the beach, I have to admit that this area sure does put on a beautiful show in Autumn. Maybe I'll make this tonight for dinner (<: Corn Chowder

1 tablespoon soy butter
3 cups diced onions
¾ cups allergy-free saltine cracker crumbs

Next week, sticking to the theme of corn....I'll post my recipe for Corn Fritters. They taste just like the ones you can get at The Old Mill in Gatlinburg....YUMMM!
