I have had several people ask me about the “cream of whatever” soup.  I have been using this recipe for years thus avoiding the sodium and preservative filled canned soup.  This recipe costs pennies……..and tastes a lot better in casseroles than the canned soups.

2 c. powdered nonfat dry milk

1/4 c. cornstarch

1/2 c. instant powdered bouillon (beef/chicken or vegetabls)

2 T. dried onion flakes

1 tsp. basil

1 tsp. thyme leaves

1/2 tsp.. pepper

Combine all ingredients, mixing well.  Store in an airtight container until ready for use.  To use:  1 can=Combine 1/3 c. dry mix with 1 1/3 c. cold water in sauce pan.  Cook and stir until thickened.  Add to whatever as you would a canned product.
