Cheeseburger Chowder. page 187

So in this cookbook, preceding each recipe is a little blurb from the creator of the recipe.  This one read. "After tasting a wonderful chowder at a restaurant, I dressed up a can of cheese soup to see if I could capture some of the flavors.  I then took things a step farther by adding chiles and and Southwestern spices.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I do."  

Really?  If that was dressed up, I have to say that restaurant's got to be out of business.  It was really bland.  It didn't taste bad, just not memorable...at all.   The plus-side is that it is edible and easy to make.  It's just one of those soups that you don't hate, but you don't like either.  I'd call it Neutral Chowder.  Even the garnish (crushed corn chips, cheese and green onions) don't give it enough flavor for me to highly recommend it.
