Make this soup mix and add your favourite fixings such as shredded chicken, diced celery or mushrooms. This can also be used as a starter base to gravies and sauces.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups dry/powdered milk
  • 1 1/2 cups cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup chicken bouillon powder
  • 1 tbsp parsley
  • 1 tbsp minced onion
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1/2 tsp thyme
  • 1 tsp pepper

Mix everything together and store in an airtight container.

To make:

  1. 1 cup chicken broth
  2. 1/3 cup soup mix
  3. 1/4-1/2 cup add such as celery, chicken, mushrooms

Combine all ingredients into a sauce pan along with your add-ins and stir over medium heat until thickened.

Additionally you can use as you would any cream-of soup in casseroles, crockpot meals, etc. Note: This recipe is the equivalent of one can of cream soup.

Note: I have also substituted the chicken bouillon powder for beef bouillon powder and then substitute beef broth for the chicken broth. This makes a great source of stock for casseroles, crockpot meals. Add caramelized onions to make a great onion gravy.
