Hastily Prepared Clam Chowder

Hastily Prepared Clam Chowder

In a 3-qt saucepan, combine:

Two 6.5 ounce cans of Chopped Clams (in their own juices)

4 cups Frozen Southern Style Hash Browns (peeled & cubed potatoes), unseasoned.

2 or 3 tablespoons of Real Bacon Bits

1/4 cup dried onion flakes

Salt and Pepper to taste

Fill pan with water until it just barely covers the ingredients. Cover and cook on medium or med-high until potatoes are done, stirring whenever you remember to.

Remove from heat, pour milk in to desired consistency (about 1-2 cups).

Add instant mashed potatoes to thicken chowder.
