Corn Chowder with Shrimp and Turkey

Heather Thomas, sloCooking
This corn chowder is wonderful to make when you can get fresh summer corn, but feel free to use frozen and you'll have a recipe you can cook year round.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp. canola oil
  • 1 ½ lb. ground turkey
  • 1 green pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped

  • 2/3 cup gluten free flour

    Add turkey and cook until browned
    Mix in peppers and onion

    Add dairy free margarine to pot and melt
    Stir in gluten free flour
