I have never tasted the Clam Chowder at Disneyland but if it is like this copycat recipe it is very good! Full of clams, potatoes, onion, celery, red pepper and green pepper plus other ingredients makes this a very delicious Clam Chowder. I don’t care for red and green peppers so I leave them out.

  1. Never been to Disneyland myself. Not been to USA ever but all over the world except. Clams we can get here so will give this a try .My own love is Muscles in onions and white wine and butter boiled until shells open then use shells up scoop up the lovely juices and shell fish too. Garlic grated over it is true French dish

  8. It looks delicious and that is something my mom never made – she was not a fish eater, though she made fish-type dinners with salmon or tuna, but clam soup, a favorite of mine, was/is Campbell’s Chunky Soup.

      • OMG I have to tell you about my granddaughter! She only likes the extra cheddar Gold Fish crackers. My husband does the grocery shopping (he loves it I hate it). However, I do the Sam’s Club shopping because he buys too much. Anyhow, I saw a gigantic 3 bags in a box Gold Fish and was so excited because we were buying them every week for her. I knew these would last! Well the ones I bought weren’t the extra cheese! So I have all these gold fish she has to eat and doesn’t really like….bad Grandma!

      • That’s funny – didn’t know about the extra cheese and I’m guessing they would just have the bigger quantities of the regular cheese Goldfish? I’ve never been to Sam’s Club since it’s just me. I just love Goldfish and the whole grain are cheesy … I tried the pizza ones too, bet she would like them – they are good and give the clam soup a little pizzazz!

  12. Mmmmm –
    I have had many many versions of New England clam chowder but not sure if I ever had Disney’s version – ha- but I recall having some in the airport once and it was excellent / least fav – all soups (and food) at ikea –
    IKEA does not keep their soup hot enough!
    Anyhow – your bowl of ready to eat chowder Looks great

    PSdid u know the hubs and I had clam chowder on our first date. And chicken Caesar salad in downtown Denver –

    • Awwww what a sweet memory!!! Isn’t it funny how we remember things like that? So special! I didn’t know IKEA served food! I have only been there once about 8 years ago.

      • Yeah – they have an eating area – up near the children’s stuff and kitchen demos (at the one in northern va – and in their defense – we often went at night – so the soup is winding down – but even daytime hours it is never warm enough – and maybe because some of them are cream based they can’t be super hot – but think I got sick on it twice and will never eat their again – I used to get their salmon and soup – anyhow – they also sell food items like coffee and their famous meatballs

      • Yes – just keep doing what you do in your Indian Kitchen – kissing (remember when I said “in-dianes-kitchen” looked like Indian –
        But keep doing what you do and is retirement happening soon?

      • My husband can’t retire until I can get Medicare, about 4 years yet. He provides our health insurance through his job. He actually is retired but only works because we need health insurance….ugh!

      • got it – but at least you are so close and have things really set up – that is such a gift. Seth Godin was just talking in ana interview about how retirement will not necessarily be so secure for future generations – and not because of SS issues – but because jobs are changing and the whole system is different –
        anyhow, the four years will go fast

  14. As we don’t really have it here in UK I never had clam chowder until I was in the Maritime Provinces of Canada travelling with my friend a few years ago and I loved it. Since then I have always been promising to make some but never got round to it. The problem here is that clams are prohibitively expensive but I’ll treat myself one of these days. I must admit that I did not know Disneyland was famous for chowder.
