Corn and Tuna Chowder image

Throw this chowder together and let it simmer away while you get the rest of dinner ready and its nearly done. Not only that but this is a light and tasty soup! This is not a thick chowder - when I want to thicken it up a little I mix 2T cold water and 1T cornstarch together, add to simmering soup until thickened (don't bring soup to boil with milk in it though!).
