What to Do
- Combine first 7 ingredients in a 4- to 5-quart slow cooker.

In the Southwestern Corn Chowder recipe it calls for 1 (10-ounce) package frozen seasoning blend. What is that? Also, while typing on your site, my keyboard doesn't work properly and this only happens here so I know it is not my keyboard.

Frozen seasoning blend is a combination of onions, celery, red peppers, green peppers and parsley. If you can not locate it in the frozen section of your local supermarket, check with a store manager. In some stores, it can be found close to the frozen chopped onions. Thank you and enjoy!
