Looking for a good fish chowder recipe
Here's one from recipesecrets.com. It sounds good. Be careful not to consume too much of the milk broth as this will add liquids to your pouch. and not give you the room for the fish-proteins. I'm not sure I'd put the celery and carrot in, but it's up to your taste.
