1/2 ts Pepper
NOTE: To use in
place
of canned cream soups in casseroles or as a
base for your own
soups.
Much lower in fat and salt than the canned
versions. The trick is to
have it made up ready to use! Combine all
ingredients, mixing
well.
Store in an airtight container until ready
to use. To SUBSTITUTE FOR
ONE CAN OF CONDENSED SOUP: Combine
1/3 cup of dry mix with 1
1/4 cups of cold water in a saucepan. Cook
and stir until thickened.
Add to casseroles as you would the canned
product. Makes equivalent
of 9 cans of soup. Source: The New American

Note:
I have been using this for several months and it works
great. If you want to
make cream of mushroom or cream of chicken, or
whatever, just add some
chopped
mushrooms or chicken (or whatever) to
the recipe. My
only caution is to make sure you STIR constantly while
you're thickening it
on the stove. Otherwise it may scorch. I
basically just bring
it to a boil (while stirring), let it boil for
20-30 seconds, and
take
it off the heat. Using this mix has saved me a
fortune! Plus
it's fat-free and has less sodium than good old
Campbell's!
