Cheesy Potato and Corn Chowder

The base of this recipe is country gravy mix which is one of my favorite things.  This isn't going to make a top 10 Weight Watchers recipe but I bet it is delicious.  So, double up your work out the day you make this and enjoy!

2 tbsp. margarine
1 C. chopped celery
1 C. chopped onion
2 14.5oz. cans chicken broth
3 C. peeled and cubed potatoes
1 15oz. can whole kernel corn
1 4oz. can diced green chiles
1 2.5oz. pkg. country style gravy mix
2 C. milk
1 C. shredded Mexican style processed cheese food aka Velveeta

In a large saucepan, melt margarine over medium high heat.  Add celery and onion; cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes.

Add chicken broth; bring to a boil.  Add potatoes; cook over low heat for 20 to 25 minutes or until potatoes are soft, stirring occasionally.

Stir in corn and chiles; return to boiling.  Dissolve gravy mix in milk; stir into boiling mixture.  Add cheese; cook and stir over low heat until cheese is melted.
