It was always my family's tradition to eat soup on Christmas Eve. Clam Chowder and French Onion. Brad and I have decided to continue on with that tradition! We usually serve the clam chowder in sour dough bread bowls and it is soooo yummy. I just found this recipe in a pile of papers from last year and I have to write it down so I don't have to call my Mom or sister when we make it again this year!
