Simplest Clam Chowder EVER

Disclaimer #1:  This recipe presumes that you enjoy the taste of cream cheese.
Disclaimer #2:  This recipe does not claim to be "the best" clam chowder in creation - just dern close. 

Oh, but it's definitely the easier.  Ever.  No contest.  

You'll need:

- 3-4 (ish) Red potatoes, chopped
- 1 Onion, chopped
- 1 "box" of Cream Cheese
- 2 Cans of Clams
- Milk, Salt, Pepper, Dill, Butter, etc.  However much you want, for flavor.  :-)

Instructions:

Chop potatoes, and onions, and put in pot - see?


Boil them until tender (about 10 minutes).  Then, drain pretty much all the water.  (Don't bother to add any spices to the water, since you'll be draining it so quickly...)


Add hunk of cream cheese...


Add clams, INCLUDING the juice...



Like sooooooo....


Reheat.  Stir.  Add any spices your heart desires, and as much milk as you want - we like ours thicker, so I add about, um... one splash. 

(Wow - what a culinary term!  "One Splash."  I know, I know - I need to trademark that...)

Incredibly yummy!
