Making Your Own Cream of Soup

Tweet

I dearly love to cook and bake. I love to give gifts that I prepare myself. Gifts in a jar,gifts in a can and homemade mixes are great. I personally use them on a regular basis and encourage others to use them also. I cannot use MSG and it is in most commercial foods these days. I have contacted companies and they dont seem to care. Alot of people cannot use MSG and still alot more have no idea what it does to them. They get an immediate headache after eating and dont know why. This recipe for cream soup is so much cheaper than commercial cream soups. This really is a great recipe! The key to using this homemade cream of soup is to have it on hand. If it is easily accessable, you will be more apt to use it. Once you begin to make your own mixes, you are well on your way to healthier cooking and eating. This is a recipe that I added to my Christmas basket gifts this year. It is such a practical recipe that most can use and has NO MSG or other preservatives that you cant even pronounce! Have you ever checked the sodium in canned soups? Wow it is so high in sodium. This homemade recipe can be used in casseroles or crockpot recipes. Great to keep on hand and to give as gifts or use yourself. Enjoy!
