Cream of.....Soup From SandKsMama
Here's what I do, it's based on a recipe but I'm sure I've changed it...
Take 3 Tbsp butter, melt in a saucepan on medium heat. Add 3 Tbsp flour to the
melted butter and stir to create a roux. Then add about 2 cups of liquid - I usually
use half milk, half chicken broth - depending on what I have in the pantry! And add
whatever spices depending on what flavor you want...if you are making cream of
mushroom, then add chopped mushrooms and some spices(I like sage or poultry
seasoning, but have also used garlic powder, salt and pepper, etc.) Heat till
thickened and voila!!
This is really good, and so much cheaper and healthier than canned soups!
