We’ve really been trying to avoid GMOs in my family. That tends to mean very few prepackaged foods unless they are organic. Organic condensed soup runs $2-3 a pop, which is LUDICROUS to me! So I came here (of course) and found Specialty Soup Substitutes - Cream. These are my easier, lower fat versions. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon potato starch or 1 tablespoon organic cornstarch |
salt (to taste) |
pepper (to taste) |
1/4 teaspoon poultry seasoning |
1/2 cup chicken broth |
1/2 cup milk |
1/2 teaspoon butter |
1/4 cup diced mushroom |
1 teaspoon dried onion flakes |
1 cup milk |
1/2 teaspoon butter |
1/4 cup diced celery |
1 teaspoon dried onion flakes |
1 cup milk |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/4 teaspoon onion powder |
1/4 teaspoon basil |
1/4 teaspoon oregano |
1 cup tomato juice |
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard |
1 cup milk |
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
Directions:
1. Place saucepan over medium heat.
2. For CREAM OF MUSHROOM or CREAM OF CELERY: melt butter and sauté veggies.
3. For ALL: combine starch, liquid, and spices in a container with a tight fitting lid. Shake vigorously until well combined. Add to saucepan and stir constantly until thick.
4. To finish CHEDDAR CHEESE: Remove saucepan from heat. Add cheese and stir until melted.
