Mom's Nova Scotia Seafood Chowder

Recipesfull introduces to you: More Soup Recipes. (Mom's Nova Scotia Seafood Chowder). Being from the Easy Coast, I've tried a lot of different chowders; however, my Mom's takes the cake. She makes a huge pot of this chowder every Christmas Eve and all of it is gone by Christmas night. Although it is not very healthy, it is an awesome treat once in awhile for any of us that love seafood! I normally throw in a dash of garlic and onion powder. Enjoy!
