This is a nice cajun-y spicy chowder. I used a bag of mixed seafood from Sam's (minus the octopus, which isn't my favorite and I think can get tough) and 4 ears of leftover grilled corn on the cob. Feel free and use any seafood/fish you like, or even some chicken would be good, but then it's not seafood chowder anymore! Easily adapable to whatever veggies you have leftover, too. Spice measurements are approx, as they can vary by taste or how old your spices are.
