This is a great, hearty slow cooker fish chowder that's lower in fat. It's perfect for a winter's day. This recipe is very versatile. I use low-sodium, homemade stock, and I find there's enough salt from the bacon that no more is needed. You can change up the seafood, the vegetables, and the seasonings. I find seafood chowder difficult to reheat (a no-no at work!), so I make this when I have company coming when we can finish it in one or two days.
