I love clam chowder, but regular chowder is full of unhealthy potatoes and flour. So I came up with this version. There's about 10g carbs per serving. Don't ask about the fat content, since I don't keep track of fat, there's nothing wrong with fat, it's all the carbs.
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb bacon, diced shopping list
- 3 TBS butter shopping list
- 1/2 small onion diced shopping list

- 2 cans baby clams(10 oz) with liquid plus enough water to make 4 cups shopping list
- 2 TBS Better than broth lobster base (or you could probably use chicken base) shopping list
- 2 Cups heavy cream shopping list
- 2 Cups Carb countdown milk or Half and Half shopping list
- 2 TBS ThickenThin/NOT starch (guar gum) shopping list
How to make it
