Sausage, mushroom chowder

cold weather, means soup experiments will begin again..... so last night I started making some sausage, ran out of time, ended up eating.....something else, all a blur......anywhoooo, so the sausage went in the crockpot along with some other goodies and here is the recipe....

1 lb sausage, cooked and drained
6 oz sliced or quartered white mushrooms
6 oz sliced or quartered baby bella mushrooms
1 bag frozen corn
a handful or two of baby carrots
8 cups water
3 tbsp Better than boullion chicken flavor

1/2 cup or so of Idahoan Real Potato Flakes

Cook and drain sausage, and saute mushrooms........throw all that plus the rest of the stuff in the crockpot, except the potato flakes. Let it cook over night in the crockpot, add flakes before serving and about a cup of milk....serve and eat yummy.......
