Sweet Summer Corn Chowder in the Slow Cooker [Vegan & Oil Free]

This sweet and spicy summer corn chowder is sure to hit the spot on those cooler summer nights. The slight spiciness from the jalapeno and the sweetness of the corn really compliments each other. Not to mention, for something so thick and hearty, it is surprisingly light since it’s completely oil-free.

I love eating this in a bread bowl, or serving it over rice. Some crackers or crusty bread would be great with this soup too.
