Do you like to cook with cream of _____ soup? I did. Loved making casseroles with the stuff. As I mentioned in a previous post, I'm slowly adapting to the Clean Eating idea of eating. I'm down 17 pounds since Thanksgiving. Yeah, I know, such a small amount of weight and such a long period of time. But you know what? This is the 1st time I've been below 200lbs in almost 10 years.
Anyway, back to the point. When I looked at a can of cream of soup, the sodium content alone made me stop using it. Also, unless you find a really good sale or buy store brand, the stuff ain't cheap.
I saw a few different versions of homemade cream of soup mixes on Pinterest so I thought I'd give it a try. Here is where I found the recipe I went with.
As you can see I made a few exchanges due to choice and lack of listed ingredients. The sodium free chicken (and beef) bullion I discovered some time ago is awesome.
Throw it all in a bag or airtight container.
Conversion.
Nice consistancy.
Made my chicken and noodles with it where I would have used Cream of Chicken soup. The only difference was the lack of all that sodium. But for my high blood pressure, that's a necessity. Sorry about the steam effect, lol.
