I had Manhattan Clam Chowder when I went out to lunch today, and I realized there weren't any recipe for it on the index! This one's very basic (i.e. quick and easy), which is how I like to cook! Just be careful if tomatoes are a problem for you, since this is a tomato-based soup.

Manhattan Clam Chowder (Quick)
(Makes 2-4 servings)

2 tablespoons chopped onions
1/4 cup sliced celery (optional)
1 (6.5 ounces) can minced clams (I use whole baby)
1 (16 ounces) can tomatoes, chopped with juice (or 1 can stewed tomatoes)
1 small potatoes, cubed
1 small carrots, chopped
1 dash thyme or marjoram
salt
cayenne pepper
1 slice soy or turkey bacon, cooked and crumbled (optional)
oyster crackers (optional)

Combine all ingredients except crackers in a saucepan.
Simmer covered for 30 minutes or until veggies are tender.
Serve with oyster crackers or crackers of your choice.
