I found this on a site called "Tammy's Recipes" and have found it to be a great substitute for canned "cream of" soups. It is different from the others on this site as it is not a dried mix, but an actual condensed soup like Campbell's. I like that you can adjust the amount of salt and fat to your liking, and that it doesn't have any chemical additives in it. I make it with 1% milk and low sodium or homemade broth. It is also cheaper than the canned stuff - I usually make a double recipe and freeze it in 1 and 1/4 cup amounts (10 ounces in each ziplock bag = I "can" of soup). Greasing the measuring cup with pam before putting the soup in makes it easier to pour it out into the bag. I have not tried yet, but I bet you could also make a good Cream of Mushroom with this recipe by using mushroom broth... Anyhoo - thanks to Tammy! One batch makes 2 "cans" worth - I usually double it to make 4 "cans" at a time.

You have these ingredients already. So save yourself a trip to the store, some money, and some sodium. Here's a flavorful condensed cream of chicken soup base recipe for use in dishes that call for canned creamed soups. Use instead of condensed canned cream soups in recipes. Just add the ingredient that forms the basis of the soup. Chop mushrooms, sauté in a bit of olive oil and add for cream of mushroom soup. Add chicken for cream of chicken soup. Chop & sauté celery for, you guessed it, cream of celery. (As found at tammysrecipes.com/homemade_cream_chicken_soup ) Yields 3 cups -- about 2 (10.5 oz) cans of condensed cream of 'whatever'.

Entered for safekeeping. Diabetics and heart patients need to watch their carbs and their sodium, but they still need to eat, and cream of chicken soup is satisfying and useful for other recipes. This has been adapted from the American Heart Association Low-Fat, Low-Cholesterol Cookbook of 1989. This will replace one can of condensed cream of chicken soup.
