No need to run to the store when you need a can Cream of WHATEVER soup. It's quick & easy to make yourself! And without those questionable ingredients in the canned stuff. #TexasHomesteader
In a small bowl mix 4 Tablespoons flour, salt, pepper, and ¼ teaspoon celery seed.
In a saucepan over medium heat, add flour mixture & slowly stir in 2¼ cups chicken broth and ¼ cup milk. Simmer over medium heat until thickened. (You can add leftover shredded chicken if desired for a meatier soup.)
Remove from heat and use in the place of a can of Cream-Of-Chicken soup in your recipe!
If you want a heartier cream-of soup you can add any of these ingredients while soup is simmering:
Chopped cooked chicken for cream-of-chicken soup
Drained can of mushroom pieces for cream-of-mushroom soup
Minced, sauteed celery for cream-of-celery soup
Minced sauteed onions or garlic for extra flavor
A tablespoon of butter or bacon grease to add richness
